Front Wheel Hub Dust Cap

Apparently you are not allowed to need a replacement dust cap for the front wheel hub. If anyone knows where to find one please let me know. 2008 TL

What dust cap are you referring? Don't know of any on the front, but the rear has a cap.

I am looking for a cap that was pressed into the center of the front wheel hub. You have to remove it before you can see the spindle nut. My car came with one from the factory but I cannot find a reference to it in any service manual or parts site. Maybe it is not required.

Three days of no sleep had me thinking there was a cap on the front which I have been searching for for the last two days. There isn't only in the rear. Going to sleep now.
