Oooh, those are some wicked blood stains! 
I bet Bambi didn't see THAT one coming...
FWIW, a friend'* sister had these equipped on her Mercury Cougar. Guess what; she hit a deer and totalled the car. :? The two "whistles" probably ended up embedded in the deer'* abdomen. I can't say they'll work any better than a sharp eye and itchy brake-pedal foot.

The car is FINALLY back in my driveway. 
It was weird going from my brother'* Beretta back to the Bonnie (I now have room). Will get pictures up soon, but i'm going to play with my car first.

Sorry for the lack of updates, but I've been busy lately (have to pay for this chaos somehow....)
The grand total out the door was $740. It wasn't the A-1 repair I wish I could have gotten, but considering my mechanic had no time on his part, and I had very little budget for him to work with, he did the best that he could, which actually is a lot. The repair list included a new hood, fender, headlight assembly, grill, and repairs to the radiator mount and fan shroud. All the parts needed to be repainted to match, and you can only tell the difference if you've looked at the car before my car'* disagreement with nature as much as I have. I certainly got my money'* worth though.
After pics will be up tomorrow, and probably some before before (pre encounter) pics as well (gotta ***** it out if I can).
