You Belgian's like the Germans? What you have to understand is the first thread was written tongue in cheek... I was expressing my saddness in an exaggerated way which a lot of people hear see as a type of humour...

Yes it's not the worst thing in the world, of course it isn't...

if it makes you feel any better i was using a torque wrench on my wheels about 2 months ago and i forgot about how the lug holes are more recessed in the back wheels of my car and the adapter i was using wasnt quite long enough... so every time i was turning the lug nut i was brushing the metal handle of the wrench across the spoke... long story short i put 3 chips in 3 different spokes just messing around in my garage like a dumbass


and thats not the worst thing ive done.... i had about a 1 inch row of bent fins from rock or whatever... on my intercooler and i couldnt stand it so i took a screw driver and tried to bend them back straight.. by the time i was done it was worse...double the size and they that first row and fallen out....

so yeah ive been there my friend
