Do people sell single lug nuts?

Well guys i was tightening some lug nuts and then one of them got stuck insie my deep socket.
Now the lugnut is litterally impossible to get out of the socket, even with sticking a screw driver in it and banging on it.

Even if i did manage to get it out, the face of the lug nut is totally destroyed.

So just wondering have any of you guys manage to ever just buy one lug nut from a vendor or website? Thanks!

I cant really ask them because it is sunday and all the websites and stuff are closed.

Well i only need one, it is a red blox lug nut.
do you guys have any advice on how to get a lug nut out of a deep socket that was too big for the lugnut?

This is what it looks like now, i know its hard to see, but the lug nut is not lined up correctly and is stuck in the socket.. :[

Yea you made a good point on it beign bent or messed up.

I just went ahead and contacted the makers of the brand lugnuts i had and ordered a single lugnut.

The price is a bit steep buying one compared to a whole set, but i guess you gotta do what you gota do :/
