Default i have to vent

i got of school today around 1 so i decided to do my rear disk. i had everything there. even a friend to help. Sure enough something went wrong, i couldn't get the screws the rotors in place even with the suggested piece of crap impact screw driver. Has any1 had this problem before. Now i have to run around tomm. to see if can get someone to install the rotors and pads for me. Oh i took my car to a shop to get this done like 3 weeks ago, they told me that my rotors were scored and they would not resurface the,and wanted 380 for just the rear, rip off right any who. I looked today the rotor were neither scored or warped, the pads werent even on the sensor but pretty close. i hate liars

after you take off your wheel, you put all the lug nuts back on and tighten them all the way. then take the screws out and most likely they will not strip at all.

drill them out.. those sckews are not needed to hold the rotor to the hub.. i put cross drilled rotors on my coupe cause the stocks were warped and had to drill them out cause they would not budge, i had an impact sckrew driver and also impact wrench.. drill them out put new rotors on, and then put wheel back on and tighten the lugnuts to 80lbs tourqe and you will be good to go..
