Angry Need Center Cap on Lexus Rim!

Hey guys,

I am pissed right now. I went to school, and when I got back
to the parking lot, somebody stole the center cap to my left
rear rim. Naturally I was furious that someone would touch
my wonderful car. Anyways, after I calmed down, I called the
local Lexus dealership (Lexus of Orlando) to get a replacement.
They want $64.39, plus an additional $30 to gold plate it. Please
note this price is for one (1) not a set of four! So now I am driving
around with a car with only 3 caps. Just looking at it gets me
angry.

I am hoping somebody on this board can point me in the right
direction to finding another cap. It is a '92 LS with the chainsaw
type rims. I only need one center cap, preferably gold trim to
match the others.

Any Help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Try Ebay?

I'm also looking to get one (just one of my four) center caps rechromed because it has a large scratch on it, just on the center cap part.

Try w/any local wheel and rim shop, they can find one for you.I got one 95 used w/ gold L for 35.00.The "irontoad.com" give me a quote for 75.oo + SH.For your info, center caps of 90-92 and 93/94 do not fit 95/97
For 92 lexus, check item # 2400140008, there are 2 sets not sold because the seller wife still need them.Hope you can convince him to get one w/ goldplate L.
Good luck

Will the center caps from a 93/94 fit a 92? I know the
93/94 are 16" rims, whereas mine are 15" rims.

Thanks for all your help so far.
