Valve stem covers.
Bought a new GS last Thursday. While detailing the other day, I noticed a rear silver colored plastic valve stem cap was missing. Anyone know where to just buy them? I really do not want to go back to the dealer.
Thanks

OEM...the dealer should just give them to you....new car
Walmart, Kragen et al would have some you may like, but won't match the OEM.
Others like Mid America have some w/ Corvette emblems on them.

Just get the CHEAPEST plain metal or plastic ones from local Checker, O'Reilly, Kragen, etc.... the nice ones seem to just vanish. Logo ones on my last 2 Vettes, and the AMG ones from the M-B. "Cheapies" seem to last forever. YMMV

Kingdaddy, I do not know how you are attached or know the girl in your photo, but if she delivers, I will buy 1000 replacement valve stem caps. Z06Clif, I have some police issue stop sticks you can use, those bikes will go down and you can get your caps back (just give me one). Other than that, I will hit my dealership up and get one, or raise hell. Just bought a Grand Sport dammit, Give me a valve stem cap.

I taught high school and had to park in a common lot... put spin-caps on all my cars, never a problem. Be sure to get extra keys. And read their warning about corrosion & fusing of dissimilar metals... that is, chrome looks great, but can fuse to the aluminum valve stem. So, get the cheaper aluminum spin-caps.

There seems to be alot of that here on the forum. People using internet picture of girls as their avatar, girls they don't even know.
