What is a nut cover and where is it used on a model T?

Powder coating colors in bronze, copper, and gold, are available from Eastwood.

The nut covers that I am familiar with, slip on head bolts or nuts to make them pretty. They are most commonly used on flathead V8's, but can be used on any engine. All I have ever seen are chrome since that is most popular, but I guess in weird applications, a different color might be desired. If so, the user would have to have chrome nut covers plated to his choice or have them powder coated.
