well last night i was driving home on the highway cruisin at 75 mph and i see a deer run right in front of car. i got it slowed down to about 35, 45 probably i really can't remember but i just remember the very loud pop of the air bags and getting thrown into my seatbelt. thank god both me and my passenger were wearing our seatbelts i didn't even hit the air bag becuase of it but my passenger did. the worst part of it is i only have liability but i'm not going to sell it i'm going to fix it and now would be a great time to swap or turbo so i think i'm going to get a loan and start getting parts. the frame doesnt seem like it got bent the pillars are okay and the doors are still linde up so i think its just some front radiator supports and brackets along with radiatior and some stuff behind it.
i know venus auto has clips but who else has them. [[[[pics in profile]]]]] i don't know what it is with people wrecking lately we have got to stop. |

There doesnt seem to be frame damage. i dont think a dear can cause unibody frame damage to a car.. You got to remember our unibodys are design to withstand crashes with another car, hitting a dear isnt exacly a car.
I wouldnt try to put a 5th gen radiator support on. I would go with a genuine toyota part with this, cuz if you want your hood to line up with your fender/bumber it relys on this part of the car. If you report this to your insurance they will definately salvage your car because of the airbags. Its better to fix it your self.. Good luck in fixing it and sorry for your lose.. |
