Hood is bent too. Not much but there’s a small crease on the front edge. I know what you mean. Airbags and windshield are fine so it could have been a lot worse than what it was. The AC refrigerant leaked out so there is some damage to the condenser area but I think it’s mostly cosmetic.

$11k in damages ... Replaced with all OEM parts, good as new ... Never going to complain about paying insurance premiums again. [IMG]file:///C:\Users\Frank\AppData\Local\Temp\msohtmlclip1\01\ clip_image001.gif[/IMG]

Wow, that’s a lot of damage for a deer!! Yeah, can’t say anything about the premiums.

WOW!! That’s heartbreaking!!! I’m fine, thanks for asking, I was only going around 40mph. Same thing in Michigan with no fault as long as you don’t swerve. I trust the dealership so I’m really not too concerned. It’s kind of a downer but it could have been much, much worse.
