Default Anyone want to see what it looks like to have a deer run into my ITR? =(

Yup...I was coming home last night from my gf house. Doing the speed limit and I see 2 full grown 300 lb deer. I was like ok, please dont run out in the road. There are always deer on this road, but none have ever ran out in front of me before. So I start to slow down thinking I'll just ease by and they wont take off, but if they do I can stop.

Wrong! As soon as they saw me one of them took off right at my car. I locked up the brakes and he plowed right into the fender and then hit my door braking my mirror. theres blood by my ITR sticker on the side too. I then hit the gas and drove off...I never saw if I killed it or not.

Well, the car is already at the body shop...no luck on a JDM front end. But I should get some cash out of this since Ill buy all my parts at cost.

Here are the pics.

Damn Deer
Ditto. I hit a dead deer that was laying in the road in my old '93 del Sol. It bent my lower A frame, bent one 17 inch wheel + flat tire, screwed up alignment, ball joint and hoodline.

I remember driving on the open roads at night in Saudi Arabia, you'd have to watch out for camels! Those things weigh over a 1000 lbs +. Its like hitting a small car, and people get killed all the time.

If its *** hit your door then its most likely **** or some sort of excrement.

I hit one in an acura vigor, the deer's shoulder busted the headlight took all the glass while the
*** end whipped around and crushed the fender and then it **** all over the car. Literally the whole driver side and roof was covered in ****. I had no idea an animal could hold that much.
Otherwise it left a sizeable pool of blood on the ground and took off, leaving me
with a few tufts of deer hair and a busted car.
