Default SOB broke my Sport Wing

Dam it I missed a bolt some how and while pulling on the wing after a good WD-40 soak of the double sided adhesive tape it snaped right where the missed bolt is located. Chalk one up for lack of expereince. Oh well, costly lesson!

Here is my Z at Hot Import Nights sporting the USW Forged Custom painted Crossover wheels and dropped on BC Racing Coilovers.

The glass is always half-full, not half-empty.

I was expecting to see the picture of the broken wing. I didn't quite understand from the explanation alone.

Sorry to hear about the wing.

Some of you misunderstand, I built the Z the way I wanted to mod it and not the way you think it should be. Your opinion is yours alone and frankly I don't care what you think. My ride, my mods.

Don't understand why you guys are trying to Troll the OP.

He had a story, and just posted a random picture of his car so you can imagine if it had a wing, and it broke...

Can not fault the guy for getting defensive.


Edit: After reading the post, I thought I was on the general forums.
