S Spoke wheel nut caps?

Hi,

I have just fitted my S spokes (as pictured below). My question is - are there any wheel nut caps available from bmw?

Also, maybe someone would know their part number however just answering this question is good enough!

Cheers!

is there a specific reason for replacing them apart from their looks?

Would you say the wheels look more appealing to steal without the black bolts?

Surely it's the wheels a thief looks at when they consider nicking a set - not the bolts.

Oh so theres the machine they came off! Very tastey.....

I reckon your new wheels look excellent btw - i spotted them on the thread 'show off your wheels' in the wheel and tyre section.
