are you gonna get the deer mounted? At least see if a butcher can cut anything up, venison is DAMN GOOD! My grandpa hit a deer last month in their 97 Park Avenue, really screwed the front end up. You are lucky your insurance is good, and that you wont be at fault.

I just let it sit there all day while I went to classes and work. The coyotes probably got to it by now.

Yes I'm getting the special windshield with the tint and hud ($600+). Anyone wanna suggest BRIGHT headlight bulbs for the future? Legal or not I dont care...just not too expensive. Jason suggested Silverstars.

Silver Stars, Kyle. You can't go wrong, and they're legal. Save the little blue paper that comes with them in case you get pulled over.

I think that deer might be a bit gamey by now.

A dear once attacked my car head on while it was parked.

If you look closely you can see the hood sits slightly uneven. The grille is brand new, it got cracked in 2 from the deer. Also you may notice a dent in the front hood where the deer hit. I guess I made out lucky though

White. Figures. Deer are attracted to them like magnets. Kyle'* problem was fog made his car look white.

I've hit a couple deer in my time. None of them pretty.

Yup, hopefully the curse decided only to hit me for this little amount. Too bad the damn thing walked away alive but then a killing impact always causes the most damage. Kyle, good luck with the repairs man. Lets get some after pics after they're done

At least he didn't hit a bear. When I was in the Navy I was heading back to Georgia after a weekend at home and a 180-200lb bear ran right out from the right side. I swerved a little to the left and his head and my headlight made a solid connection and he rolled down the side of the car. I thought the car was going to come completely apart. It caused $3100+ worth of damage.
