So i was cruisin home one night doin about 85 and hit a deer... Looking to buy a new front clip cuz thats rly all thats messed up besides the windshield, hood, coolant lines, radiator, fans, right headlights. Once i got under the hood, I noticed that the front support bar was bent inward about 8 inches, so I just wanna replace the front end.
Does anyone know how much it would run me to get the front clip, windshield and hood?

Deers aren't soft targets... I remember we had a Deer God (Deer Gore) thread on another forum I often and someone posted a picture of a deer that hit an suv in the center of the front rolled up the hood went thru the windshield (splattering blood and such everywhere) and ended up with most in the back and some going out the rear windshield. Guy was doing 75. Completely warped the frame. Lol. Also where I live 75 is posted speed (so 80-85 is the speed most people go) on most interstates because of the lack of people. Most windy back roads are 55. You just need a good set of lights, knowledge of where the deer like to come out, and a whole lotta luck.
So back on topic- I'd just part it out man, get what you can outta it and buy a new one. Don't even worry about trying to fix it, I really don't think it'd be worth it. This post has been edited by travisxcore: Jul 19, 2012 - 1:37 PM |
