oh man... yea that thing is all the way jacked. i hope you didnt pay too much or can return it or did was it advertised like that?

ngirondo 03-30-15 08:46 AM

It was advertised as bent but I thought it was just the fins, oh well I'll try n straighten it back out and see how it goes. Thanks for the help

cr-rex 03-30-15 08:55 AM

oh... yea its actually bent. not entirely sure how you do that without destroying it but good luck bending it back. theres a good chance it will buckle or crack when you try. that thing is scrap man.... i suggest moving on to something else.

Damn yeah I guess ill chalk that one up to a loss and get a new one

cr-rex 03-30-15 09:05 AM

How did you not know it was bent?
Seller clearly states it is bent, plus there is a picture of it. Clearly bent.

Since you already got it, seems like it would be worth trying to straighten it.

If it's already scrap, what's there to loose?
