bolts

So i was taking off my engine cover, and i was taking off the bolts after taking off one of them it fell somewhere into the engine, so I'm like ok that's fine I'll get another one from the dealership. Finally I come to realize that all 4 bolts have broken in half for some reason while I was in screwing them. Now I have to buy 4 bolts which cost 2.40 each and I have to wait until wednesday. What did i do wrong that caused it to break?

Question

You did turn clockwise to tighten and counterclockwise to loosen the bolts, yes? You don't take steroids do you?

If your answer to the first question is yes, and to the second question no, then I say you go to the dealer and have them give you new bolts for free to replace the defective ones that came with the car.

I told you to wait till I could come over a do ti for you. Luckily you didn't do any more damage to the engine. It was bad enough that you tried to COLOR THE ALUMINUM SHIFT PLATE RED WITH A PERMANENT PEN!!!!!!!!! Come on man, I can help you do stuff, but please stop ricing out you car. Sorry, just had to say it

You're kidding me right! Dude, you shouldn't be allowed to mod your car. Just leave it stock; you're safer off that way.

Ray, you bring shame to all who drive TL's. Tisk tisk.

Please, when you do these things you hurt our reputation too. Maybe the Accord would be a better choice for you? hahaha.
