I watched a couple Ford guys fix the aluminum cap issue but they had good access to the nut. We have ours deep into the rear wheel and protected on all sides.
As an FYI, it is becoming a PITA to remove the nuts from my socket on the ones I can get out. I guess they are swelling?
Why the f would Nissan put these on the Z anyway?

My guess is just a spun cover cap. Take a Dremel with a ball mill and cut the end of the cap off. Once that is removed, the cap should slide off. What makes this a PITA is that you have to have a very steady hand.
