Just wait until your next service appointment. I had a flat repaired, and the guy at the tire shop forgot to put one of them on. Since I didn't want to pay $8 for a piece of metal, I waited until I went in for my 45k service. Picked the car up, and they put on the original cap, no charge 
Same with those engine hood cover clips that I broke putting in new headlights.

I had this happen to me too, twice. Someone swiped my aluminum caps, I got another set from the dealer (for free no less), got it stolen again, I replaced it with some rubber ones, which got stolen, and now I just leave them off. I figure, if I used ones with a key, they'd slash my tires

When I read this thread I lol'd. Back in the day when I was kid, my neighborhood friends and I would take the metal caps off cars and put them on our bikes since it looked cool. Twenty years later, my wife comes home all pissed off because someone jacked all four of her caps!

Someone jacked my value caps too.
Looking at Sewell, are these the caps?

Hard to tell without a picture. This is what I found using the same part number at My Lex Parts
