yup...the ball joint is done for.

interestingly enough it's only on the driver side (tie-rod and one of the control arm ball joint). according to few places online Karlyn should have a 9month 12000 miles warranty. we'll see if rmeuropean will cover it. calling them tomorrow to find out more.

Aren't the cost of these spoilers now where they are considered disposable?
