Default Rota Torque Rs happy/sad

Finally my local shop has the tires in and they get installed!!!!!The rims look great love them arrived fast from wheeldude...but the bastard install guy scratched the **** out of my titek lug nuts which makes me angry they look like poop now and to top it off i was sent 5 packs of titek lugs and in one of the pack i recieved a random 5x1.5 lug instead of 1.25 so now i have a chrome lug sitting there looking lonely

how the hell can someone just scratch one lug then continue to do so on the remaining ones...and is there any type of paint out there that i can use to cover this up temporarily until I get some new lugs

Haha you weren't joking when you said you needed new tires, your old ones were down to the wires

The wheels look great! Sorry to hear that your mechanic scratched the lugs, what tool did he use on them? It almost looks like he used a regular socket and an impact gun, that's a big no no Your individual 1.25 replacement lug is scheduled to ship out tomorrow still, first time I've seen Titek package a 1.5 lug inside a set of 1.25's
