Where to get chrome lug nuts and hub covers?

I have spent the better part of 4 houts trying to find a place to buy them from.

I would like to get AL center caps, but at this point I am hoping for chrome replacements. I can't find them anywhere on line.

Does someone have any links to stuf like this?

Mark,

I bought a pair of stainless rear covers and Gorilla lug nuts from a place on e-bay. I cant remember the company name, I will have to find it, but they were great to deal with.

I got my stainless centers from a Key Auto parts dealer, formerly Keystone Automotive. I like the McGard chrome lug nuts and locks - lifetime warranty!

Do you have the factory rims? If you do they are Alcoa rims and Alcoa makes a set of chrome lugs and al covers. I could come up with some part#s if needed.
