Did they send me the wrong part?
 

So I bought my car a month ago. Since the first day I noticed all my valve stem caps were missing. I bought my car kinda far from home and I can't drive there. For a whole month I've been trying to get them to mail the caps to me. After a lot of lies and excuses I finally get them today.
The caps they sent me are plastic and a dark grey and I have a feeling they don't belong to my car. I have the 19' sport package wheels. Aren't they supposed to be metal?
Do ur sport package valve stem caps look like these:

Huh, I didn't get my caps either. I'm pretty sure those are the right ones. The ones on my G were metal and thin but was at times hard to thread it back on.

I'm using my SSR wheel valve caps. :p

here are what their supposed to look like WARNING BIG PICS. lol

Thx triple!! Ur the man
these just felt so cheap and they came wraped with tape and got all sticky. Freaken stealership! I waited a lot for these things...

Mine looks like Triples. NO plastic.

when I bought mine I noticed that mine were missing also so I went back to the dealer and told the salesman about it and he took a look at the car and said that was strange that they were missing so he took me to the back of the dealership to where they held the new cars not yet ready for sale, and walked of to a white z and removed them from that one, and handed me the caps... like wtf a new owner was going to buy that z and be in the same boat i was or may not even notice... anyways they sent you a set of generic caps which will work but aren't the OG part :tiphat:

My sport came with the plastic caps also. They though they looked strange next to the metal stems.

mine came with aluminum tips that say "Nitrogen only" pretty fancy.

If they put Nitrogen on your tires the caps will look different too, however they're metal not cheap plastic.

mine were the gray plastic on the sport package.

Time to make fun of me... But why nitrogen in the tires?

supposedly its a more stable molecule than oxygen when heated, tire pressure is supposed to remain more consistent.

tire pumps put fill tires with air. The following is the chemical makeup of air:

Nitrogen (N2) 78.08
Oxygen (O2) 20.95
Argon (Ar) 0.93
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) 0.033
Other trace elements 0.007


So is 100% nitrogen really that much better than air. How much does it cost to fill tires with nitrogen?

Please keep it on topic!

Theres a thread for the Nitrogen in tires questions
