Default Price for replacing studs

Last night changing the setup of my coilovers, my brother broke one of the studs in the front left wheel. Do u guys know how much it will cost to replace it? Does honda cover it under warranty? Also, one of the nuts on the rear wheel kept on turning when locking the wheel and I'm afraid that lug is going to fall off too. Should I replace that one also?
Thanx

Yes, you will have to replace both. It is most likely the stud stripping on the back one. The studs around only about $2-3 for each stud. You can replace them yourself. It is a pretty straight forward thing (not very difficult).

Really? I thought it was a pretty involved process involving the removal of the hub. Please tell me I'm wrong and how to do the job easily.

You can replace one without removing the hub, but for more than one you'll need to tear everything apart. The wheel studs are $4 retail from Honda, HandA should have them for less.

I also thought that it was difficult and special tools are needed.

If you can replace one without removing the hub why can't you rotate the hub and replace the next one and so on? Just curious. It doesn't make sense to me that you can replace one but if more than one needs replacing you need to take off the entire hub.
