Hahaha! I really don't know what to say here...

[JustinS]

Holy hell, I'd go ape shit, no matter what car it was.

[NewSpeedSteed]

I wouldn't know if I'd be angry or if I'd just cry if that was my car.

[Domestic Disturbance]

I'd kick my own ass for paying over 75k for a car and not having a garage to put it in. That blows though

[FiFdYnUtZ]

holy....effin....shit......i would literally shit myself if i walked out to that..

i would be pissed. they should of at least left it on jack stands. does the front wheel look like its got 6 lugs.

[Mufflover]

at least they were nice enough to leave the lug nuts.

I guess a $20 wheel lock kit was just too much..

it might just be me, but those look like the valve stem cap? i could be wrong...

[FiFdYnUtZ]

they do kinda, but why would they take them off and leave them? lol

not sure why a car with four tires would need 20 valve stem caps... LOL

they are DEF. lug nuts

sorry to say but those wheel lock kits are garbage, hammer a socket on there and you can get 'em off. . .not to mention the "keys" aren't hard to come by.

depends on which ones you get. sounds like you are talking about the "tuner" lug nuts... the ones that use a 16 point thing or whatever... I put a set on my Fiero and ended up losing the key, had to contact the manufacturer to get a new one but I needed the serial number ot get it made... ended up having to cut off the studs from the backside and air hammer them out...

[Domestic Disturbance]

those would be huge valve stem caps

Theirs a reverse style easy out that gets those tuner lugs right out. Have had to do that about a hundred times. (only once on my own car).

I'm just saying that it would of taken them longer and probably made alot more noise so it would of been harder.

[JacobS]

now that i look back, they do look like lugnuts, im dumb hahaha

Are you two talking about the inset "star" looking pattern thats show in this video?

Hammer a socket on one of those or the "spline" locking lugs and you can get 'em off.

Snap-on makes a special tool for wheel locks and tuner lugs. It doesn't harm the finish, and even if the lugs are so tight the key wont work, the snap-on tool works. Probably would have saved some time over cutting the lugs off.

The extra stud is probably an alignment stud, so the wheel or the rotor can only be installed one way. I'm not sure why they would do that though.

[sparkles]

It could also be a Phillips screw like on the RX 8 brake rotors that hold it to the spindle. Kinda hard to tell by the pictures.
