If you learned from it and it keeps you from making the same mistake again you are simply being schooled. If you make the same mistake again and again, then you are a moron.

Lol its cool

i just can not believe its that simple

Just like the bleeder screw for our coolant.

this is not a gp lol

but see the bleeder up top on the left side of the caliper, yeah simple boo boo. but once you get them flipped you'll love your new brakes.

well i guess its a learning process

We all make mistakes it's part of being human.
