When you are taking your doors off and find a use for the stock bottle jack, to lift the doors out for the first time.
Then get the brilliant idea to put the bottle jack on top of an inflated tire for more clearance, the tire pressure builds up kinetic energy causing the door to fly when it comes off. No paint was damaged, I went into ninja mode and caught a flying 40lb door suffering only a severely bruised thumbnail.

I looked for some hills I could just hit tryin to be cool and ended up breaking mounts and sheering bolts. When I took it to the shop the dude just kept looking at it and saying "ouch"... Lol
He's all "you are incredible brave to drive this all the way over here". His shops pretty far.
