I picked up some new ones at sunset when I got rid of the wheel locks. Around $9.00 each for the stock black nuts.

They're really nice too. Yup... his billet center caps are crazy expensive but there are none like it.

Roche,
I installed all new OEM black nuts and purchased through Pelican.

Another recommendation for Boothe. I actually went to his house here in SoCal to buy a set and he and his wife are real Porsche nuts. He had a nice arena red 993TT and a perfect concourse quality 911. Good people and the lug nuts are still going strong after about 2 years.....

JMA,

Were you able to leave after 30 min... LOL. Ralph and his wife are great people and real P-car enthusiasts. I enjoyed hanging with them. BTW, did you see the organge 911 targa parked next to the AR 993TT with the stainless steele roof?
