Or, wait, do you thread it onto the remaining lugnut?

It's a very hard steel designed to cut its way into the smooth surface of the nut. Think of it kind of like a thread cutter die, only in reverse.

I'm hoping the dealer will do it for you, that way if they scratch the rim you can make them pay to refinish it.
