Haha great thread. I've totally turned a caliper bolt the wrong way snapping it off. It's pretty easy to do and you feel kinda dumb but laugh about it and just grab a new one. I did not however blame the manufacturer for making non idiot proof bolts :p

sadly the people who painted my calipers didn't sand them and i provided them sandpaper too smh. now the paint is coming off just from a hose with water when I wash the car.

eventually Im going to pay to get them painted by someone who specializes in paint which is what i should have done in the first place
