You mean the big plastic hex wrench? The dealers should sell them for a few pounds. Shouldn't really need one though unless the locks on your caps are in perfect condition. Otherwise they'll twist off easily by hand.

If you mean the spline key for a locknut, you'll probably have to get a complete new set of studs. A new set (4?) of BMW locking spline studs with a spline key might be about Ԛ£30.
