Chrome Lug Bolt Covers

So, I've just had a set of wheels powder coated in anthracite for my black sapphire f30 and I was trying to find some chrome lug bolt covers, however, I'm coming up against a bit if a brick wall in regards to the BMW locking bolt. I can't seem to find a set the also caters for the cylindrical locking bolt and the standard hex lug bolts.

Has anyone found any or any other solutions?

I assume the reason BMW has used 8.8 grade bolts is that they can be drilled out easily should they become worn. Anyway, I've decided to stick with the OEM.

Forget the bolt covers and wheel lock and just buy the silver wheel bolts designed for Mini...they're the same size as the F30.. M14 x 1.25.

Wheel locks are really not a theft deterrent and and any determined thief can crack them.
