Yes, it does have a cover, and let me tell you, it was a pain in the *** to remove when I had my car towed. Practically broke it off.

Later.

I dont think theres a "special place" this cover is kept inside the car. If anything all the parts that come with the car prior to a PDI are kept in the trunk.
I have seen several people on this forum that have taken delivery without the cover. Tremble, looks like you just bought your car, I'm sure you can just go back to the dealer and say you never got one...im sure theyll hook you up.

Here is a pic of what you're missing. It should have come in a plastic bag with the front plate bracket.

My tow hook cover was installed when I picked up the car. Sorry to hear yours was not. Before picking up the Z, I was already searching for info on it. I happened to run across this link at the Courtesy Nissan site.

This is just a list of things to know / check when taking delivery of your new Z. One item it says to check for is the tow hook cover plate. Guess this plate is missing on a regular basis.
