Well at least you got them off. I have those same locks, and so I contacted Suncoast since they sold me my full set of wheel bolts with the lock bolts and key. They told me they could get me a new key but it would be $250. I was like thanks but no thanks because the original full set was $179, and $250 just for the key was kind of ridiculous.
What I do if ever I have to bring my car in to the dealer or Indy shop is to replace the lock nuts with plain bolts prior to giving my car to them so they don’t have a chance of losing my key and then swap my lock nuts back after I get my car back. A pain but ensures they don’t forget to put my key back in my frunk.

..and/or wrap it in blue painters tape with "Don't lose me again" written on it bold, so it's memorable/visible when someone uses it.
They've done studies you know, 60% of the time it works every time.

Wouldn't it be easier to just remember to look for it when you pick up your car? You'd also have to remember to do all that before hand too, right?
