Hello all, my car just landed at the dealership and I should be taking delivery tomorrow. One thing I noticed is that on my 5 spoke carbon painted rims was that there is no center caps. I knew I could have ordered some for extra cost but I figured the rims would come with something. Seems ridiculous that I spent 100k on a car and they cant supply center caps. Anyone else come across this? Just . if they were suppose to come with them and mine are just missing. Sales guy doesnt know.
The cars don't leave the factory with the caps installed. You can look at any video on YouTube of a C8 coming off the truck and none of them have caps on the wheels.
Thanks for the responses. I messaged my dealer and told him to be on the lookout for them. The trunk is full of a bunch of plastic peices I am assuming get installed under the car once inspection is done. They must be in there somewhere.
Make sure when they install the brake ducts they don't install the lower rear pieces, they are for racing only. My dealer installed them and I'll take them off as soon as I get it home, if the snow ever stops falling on the mountain passes between me and my car. I also ordered black caps to match my tridents and they look pretty nice.

You will get center caps with the wheels. I would bet they are packaged up with other things that the dealer has to install. If not, the dealer should order you a set.

I believe there are brake ducts that come with Z51 cars only, but are you saying there are other ducts that every C8 should have? If so, is that both front and back?
I think only the Z51 gets the ducts. There's an install sheet that come with them but it's confusing as hell. I was the first C8 delivery at my dealer and their tech didn't even want to put them on, he said all of it would be too low. I corrected him and had the fronts and rear uppers installed.
