Broken Front Caliper Bolt
I am an idiot. Here's why:
* I was working on my front brakes
* I got my lefty loosy, righty tighty reversed
* ver torqued the bottom bolt that holds the caliper bolt and sheared it off.
Does anyone know how expensive it is to replace the complete bolt and caliper pin?
Has anyone else performed such an amazing feat?

It is not uncommon for them to sieze with age.
Get the other one removed so that you can get the caliper off. Go to your friendly dealer and shell out the $10 or so that they want for the pair. Or visit http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com and look them up yourself. Not that expensive.
It's a good idea for people that track their cars to keep a few of these on hand.
