Black Lug Nut covers?

[Bob Z.]

Does Porsche make them or aftermarket? The lug nuts on my nnew Boxster S are already looking crappy and Black covers would look good and cover them up. Thanks in advance...Bob Z.

Funny, I was thinking about doing that last night while lying in bed. I also thought they might look cool Guards Red to match the car.

But I bought a set of Porsche Crest valve stems covers, the long ones, and they are too long so they don't fit - I was thinking of sending them back for a credit against a set of Black lug nut covers.

Bob Z:

Black lug nut (plastic) covers are available at auto parts chain stores. I saw them at Pep Boys and Autozone.

Hmmm, never thought of that and odds are they are a standard size - thanks!

Think the bolts still need painting , otherwise when the rust expands inside the cover , you will never be able to get the covers off without damaging the wheel around it. A little more expensive but more durable is to zinc plate using one of the DIY home kits and then paint. Alternatively buy the stainless steel options seen on e bay and porsche tuners. This also gives you the scope to spec longer wheel bolts to allow for spacers... food for thought ?
