Default Center caps on 16" chrome 6 spoke

I have an 01 GS 300 w/ chrome 6 spoke 16" wheels w/ the Gold lexus emblemed center caps.

I came out this AM and one of my caps was missing. I'm fairly certain it must have flown off while driving.

Anyone have a similar problem...they don't seem to be seated very well.

Anyone know who might sell these besides dealer?

I had the same thing happen with my stock wheels and got one center cap inexpensively at a lex dealer.

Default Blown off

TX GS,

It would be very difficult to convince me that one of my center caps blew off while driving, but it's nice to see that there are people in this world who are not as cynical as me. I'd try Ebay, or you can call my guy at Lexus of Manhattan.

I'm gonna side with Johnny Mo on this as well.. Hard to convince me also that the center cap flew off but check this site out below and they can get them for you.. They can also get the "L" plated in gold if you wish too..

Hope that helps!

Well, I checked the opposite side and it's ready to come off as well. It's incredibly loose...

Yes, I need the gold L center caps.

Thanks guys for your thoughts.
