Damaged the alloy around the hole in the face, where they rested the chisel(?) as they were bashing the wheel nut. It's fixable. 
I had to clean up the stud by running a die over it, too.
I'll post a picture later.
The nuts do look good on the car. Certainly better than the OEM.

Wheel refurbed, all wheelnuts replaced, and torqued down to 75NM. Jobs a good'un.
