Default It finally happened.......


I have been so afraid of cracking these things that I that I treat them like Faberge eggs. But all it took was a moment of inattentiveness; I was removing the T-top while I was talking to someone, and I lifted it a little too far before pulling.

I've been screaming internally since, haha.
