    if it was a bmw locking lug (which that is not) we have a universal master set with all of different 30 or so keys. guess that won't help you though. have fun- at work, we drill em off- takes a long time and is expensive for the customer- drill a small hole in the center, and keep on increasing the size until the head of it falls off.

            I had way too much fun doing this with an impact gun to my friends new TL he just bought, his face was priceless as I hammered on the impact socket with a sledge hammer.
