If they do jack up my rims, they'll be paying for it one way or another. Normally, is it kosher to use an air gun on keyed lugs? Like any other lug nuts, I'm sure they have an optimal torque setting, but I they think just were being lazy.

If anyone goes near my wheels with an impact wrench or air gun, I politely ask them not to as I'm never far away from my Z when it's being worked on. It's because of those that we get stripped/over-torqued lugnuts or scratched wheels.
As for the removal of it, I'm not really sure how they will... Do you have any pics of it? I would recommend taking some of the wheel before they do it so if in the event they do scratch it they can't pull the whole
"oh it was already there" defense.
