hit a deer tonight

[dragon8807]

on my way home from work tonight, i was coming up a hill and around a bend, all of a sudden i saw something out of the corner of my eye, it was a deer, damn thing just jumped right out into the road. the only damage i can see right now is the fender, bumper cover, fender liner, the header panel, the corner of my hood and maybe my head light. tomorrow morning i'm going to get an estimate

i'll get better pics in the morning

[Valley olds]

Considering you hit a deer, that isnt bad. What speed did you get it at?

[dragon8807]

i think i was going at least 30

[MattismodderX]

i hope it died

[Midgear]

i hope it died

I was just about to say something like that.. didn't wanna sound cruel though :lol:

and if it didn't, i'da made sure it died before I left.

[dragon8807]

i hope it died too

[MattismodderX]

well when u hit a deer its legally yours. i would have ripped its throat out for hurting my car

[Oldsnut]

You have dinner now. Should have skinned it and cut it up. Lost opportunity





Glad you are OK.

[shez]

post pictures of the deer. i wouldve taken pictures of the deer before my car. haha.

[bdyman]

fail!
car is fixable what kind of insurance do you have

[99alerogirl]

It actually wasnt a deer, it was a ninja :ninja: lol

[heineck]

damn that sux. was it a little deer cuz the damage isnt that bad. aye that almosts the color im painting my hoe just a little bit darker tho

[clutch1]

Wow, my car had less damage when I hit a deer, and I hit it ah like 55-60 (braking down from 70)

That sucks mang.

[AlbinoMonkeyRat]

It actually wasnt a deer, it was a ninja :ninja: lol
then it wouldn't be a case of him hitting the ninja, it would be the ninja hitting the car...on purpose!

easy fix. 8 days max at a collision shop, most of that time would be spent waiting for replacement parts. I figure spanning 3 days on paint, 1 on installation (which would probably be the first day of paint, and the 5 days of waiting for the parts to come in. Just hood, fender, and bumper.

around here it isn't. you have to call a cop and have the deer killed (officially) and tagged, before you can take it.

[MattismodderX]

ugh... cops. always good to have around >.>

Must be Pussport, NY :lol:

If it hit my car it owes me its life haha

Yeah you keep thinkin that haha

[cherrington17]

nope... just strict hunting rules....

since deer season is HUGE around here, its pretty strictly enforced

[Dhoyle]

i dont know how it is in florida, but if i could id take pics of the deer mounted to my hood goin to the butchers.... Daddy wants tome fresh Vensin(Sp?)

[lonnie]

Damn I try to hit a deer every night...bastards know me by name now....watch out lonnie's coming! LOL

Could have been alot worse indeed....had 3300 of damages to my grand am years ago, The whole drivers side was damaged, and those bastards at the insurance agency fixed it instead of totaling it out...Took a month!

oh really, so now your a tech??? eemmmmmmm let me break it down for ya ok??? thanks here weee ggooooooo

if the shop is not a service first shop for the insurance compan, here is what happens
1. we tear the car down
2, i do my add order
3. wait for the adjustor, the longest i have waited was 2 1/2 weeks for some one to come out, and unil then we can not touch the car!!!
4. once he comes to look at the car then its like i have to be a salesman to get the car fixed i hate some adjustors
5. then if there is allot of damage, structual damage, at least 2 day minimum on a frame rack, trust me that machine beats you like kinta kuinte
6. then cut off old parts, oh whats that no parts then the car sits until you have the parts to keep reparing the car
7. all the while oh crap no parts
8. crap its been 3 weeks now, double crap!!!
9. dude where are my parts i need to do this core supprt i cant do it until i get the frame rail
now if i have all my parts yes a big heavy hit can be ready for paint in the minimum time of 3 weeks, some thing like his at least 2 week minimum
when you have the knowledge and the experience then post until then please leave it to the professional thanks for playing

[AlbinoMonkeyRat]

I was only doing the timeline of when my front end was thrashed more than that. I had hood, fender, bumper and suspension damage. It was in the shop for a total of 6 days, which includes the day of the crash.
