Default Center console plastic nut covers?

I'm looking for a pair of center console nut covers. The little plastic plugs that hide the nuts on the two rear fasteners. I'm not having much luck finding them. I'd prefer them in neutral tan for my 50th but will paint them if all I can find is black.

OMG - $42 for two tiny plastic covers. I think I'll shop, but nice to know I could have them asap in the correct color. Thanks

Sometimes little parts for the car can cost quite a bit.

Would be less expensive to put couple of mint
|'53 pennies in there ... and a better conversation piece.

Some people will pay anything to keep their nuts protected!
