I just purchased a 2001 C5. It came with the Altec license plate louvered bracket and tail light louvers. (gloss black) I am missing the plastic covers to hide the screws on both the plate bracket and the tail light louvers. Is there any place these can be purchased separately?
If for whatever reason they do not I would just go to a hardware store like Lowes or Home Depot and pick up some covers. In their fastener section they have shelves that have all sizes of flat snap screw covers. Typically a nylon white in color but nothing some gloss black rattle wouldn't solve. I know for sure they'd have round covers for the tails but those oval ones used on the plate covers not so sure they'd have something that fit it...

Get you some golf ball placement markers, You can sand them down to the perfect size and even the oval size you want too, They are cheap too, get them at Walmart around $3 for a bag of 25 or so, paint them black or I'm sure a sharpie would work too, put a dab of silicone on the back and press them onto the screws that hold on your louvers and wallah, You can also use them for hiding the keyholes on the doors too. they are already the perfect size for those. Good Luck with it, CorvetteBob B.T.W. if you didn't already know, A sharpie is perfect for hiding those ugly chips on the front nose if your car is black. just an F.Y.I. Here is mine, I too have the same plate cover and tail light louvers. B.T.W. these plate covers are thick too, they cover up the lights that light up the plate at night, notice that I put spacers at the top behind the cover and used longer bolts so the lights could light up the plate at night. Hope this is helpful for you.

Altec louvered brackets
Either of those two options should work for you.
