Is there enough bolt exposed to grab with needle nose vise grips...
If so it should spin right out...

If not try a bolt extraction bit...

Could drill n re-tap...
That would definitely be my last choice..

Steve

Btw..tighten a little at a time on each side when re installing...

Did they not ship you the replacement hardware that goes in those holes? That looks like the factory T25s.

Unfortunately there’s not enough bolt that is exposed for me to have a good grip on it . I’ll probobly consider the drill and re tap but man this sucks I was to excited while installing ???. Thanks for the advice man appreciate it

They sent me one replacement bolt but it’s not the same bolt unfortunately . I’ll have to look into that part thank you ?

They make extraction tools that you drill into the center that would probably pull it out with ease...

Yeah definitely sucks...hope you get it figured out quickly so you can start enjoying your new sound?...

Did you cross thread the screw? Cause the thread should be loose if the head broke off due to over torque.

Usually the rule of thumb is not to over torque screws on CF parts.
But then who listens to rules.. I don't care if my burger has 2000 calories man, we're all slowly dying anyways!
