Wow! Glad you're ok...I've seen deer come over the top of the hood and go through the windshield.

The most important question is...did you take the buck to the butcher?


LOL..JK ;)

Damn hate to see that happen. Sounds like Akito has the plan to get the car back on the road however. Glad you are OK and I hope the car turns out the same.

Sorry. I hope you don't start seeing phantom deer. I did for a couple of years. I would be half asleep driving to work in the early morning and those ghouls would jump out in front of me. I would wake up real quick and take corrective action :eek3dance Certainly, not the nicest way to start the day. Then the deer would morph into a mailbox, which was invariably the same damn mailbox as last week, the week before and so on.

Thanks for the responses guys. I do plan on repairing it. The largest damage is to the headlights. they're all messed up. I especially appreciate akito's offer. I took the pics after I got home so I didnt get any of the buck. A few friends stopped and took a couple pics with camera phones. If I can get those pics, I'll post em.

Is the radiator support buckled?
Yeah, it's bent in. I tried hammering/pulling it back out but its pretty tough. I think this getting bent is what screwed up my headlights. I dont have to change the pic in my signature now do I...? jk
