Default Trailer Hitch Cover Options for the Cayenne

Looking for trailer hitch covers for the Cayenne; I'm beginning to show rust on the inside of my hitch and the dealer refuses to repair. I've been on numerous Porsche OEM parts supplier websites and have found nothing. Same with eBay....

Any suggestions? Also, are there any other OEM options besides the ones shown in this thread? https://rennlist.com/forums/porsche-...tch-cover.html ,

You know our Tempe PD have itchy trigger fingers; don't know if I'd want to try to pull off the claymore hitch.

Hitch Options: Here's one on eBay right now, but it looks a little too dark....dare I say, cheap....

I bought a $10 rubber hitch cover that has a ring on the back that act like a rubber hinge. I then just mounted a hood emblem to it.

I can PM you the email address of a gentleman who does custom hitch covers, laser cut steel, chromed and then hand enamel painted.

He did one for me, based off of my wife's favorite picture of one of her beloved Saint Bernards, and it came out great.
He provides drawings/images for approval before he cuts metal.

Just in case you're looking for something unique and individual.

Please do. Not sure if I'm looking for chrome, but if he paints them too, I'll definitely be interested.

I'm a little confused. First you say you've got rusty nuts, then you post a visual. In either case, I'd see a specialist. ASAP!
