Plenty of good recommendations above. Might want to try the used parts route first.

You can get them from any of the major corvette suppliers, however, you need to ensure they match your existing covers as there are many variations. Several years ago I lost one as well and after much research West Coast Corvettes (WCC) was the only one that carried my style lug nut cover, which is chrome with an indented top. I ordered 5 of them so I had extra's.
