Not good. I've come close to hitting a lot of different wild life with my car. There's more wild life than people at night on the roads out here.

Ouch. Is your hood latch bent, or is the hood not latched all the way? It's sitting up a bit high in your pic. Other than that, it looks like the corner of your fender is bent and the corner light is busted. Looks like you may have gotten lucky.

Same thing happened to my brother. The hood cracked, header panel broke, light desroyed, dent in the fender.
Well if you have some metal working tools you and pound out the dents, you cant even tell on my brothers fender you would be surprized how good a hour and some dry ice can make somthing look

I know what you mean, I hit one last year.

Two days after I got my new fender put on

Fender wasn't hurt, but hood, bumper, headlights were.

To make matters worse...

My dad just hit an 8-point buck a week ago with his F-150.

$4000 in damage, but he has full coverage.

These deer are freaking rediculous!
