Alright so I'm doing putting in my spacers today. Took off the throttle body. Removed the Plenum cover and began removing the bolts. THE LAST BOLT slips and gets stripped. I almost cried. I tried everything to take it out but, it is torqued and everything. Should I just take it to Autozone and have them take care of it? Advice guys IMA NOOB!

Autozone-? Don't think so. From your descript.- is it the bolt head that's stripped, not the threads? If so maybe a stud remover would work.

what i would do personally would be to go with a smaller socket one size smaller and bang it with a hammer for that it is flush into the head bolt and twist it out let me know if that works

Sears (and others) sell special "sockets" for removing bolts w/ stripped heads. Not too expensive and they work provided you have something left of the head to work with & the threads aren't seized so badly that the head breaks off.
