Sorry to hear about your plastic covers. I bought a used vehicle for my Son which had those. All four were damaged. You can buy a set for $25 at an auto parts store or a much nicer looking set for $35. Yes it does tend to upset you on the day of delivery :-( . Take care - MGY
Titanic1985 Champion Author South Carolina Posts:6,527 Points:374,305 Joined:Dec 2010	Message Posted: Sep 12, 2012 7:50:31 AM Ignore Titanic1985 Report Abuse Good Morning ricker2332. I purchased a sub-compact 2012 Chevrolet Sonic four months ago. No model of this vehicle comes with wheel covers, just a very asthetically pleasing set of cast wheels. I found that to be not the norm for a low-end vehicle. The next model up, the Chevrolet Cruze, does come with wheel covers on their low-end models. There is a disparity in the selling philosophy of these two models.
