  • My Luck!

    So on my way home, I seen a deer on the side of the road alive standing. Just about 5 minutes left till home, I go around a corner and 2 deers pop out on the road. The first one was a bare miss, however the second one slams into my front. The deer is dead and leaves my car a mess. My windshield is cracked all over, engine bay dented & pulled, bumber cracked, corner lamp gone, and more. Also, immediately my air bags popped out. I will upload pics later on today. And on top of all this the Festiva/Aspire Madness Meet is tomarrow!!! How's my luck for ya!

                    thats not bad at all the core support is fairly simple to cut out - its alot of spot weld drilling though - The air bags need replaced and which ever sensors activated. Other than that it doesnt look like any main componets got damaged

                        this makes me thankful i dont live in the sticks, no offense. if we see a deer near chicago that means it must have escaped from the zoo!

                              I hope you are able to get all of those replacement parts from that car I was telling you about.

                              Your car isn't totaled, so that's a good thing! you should be able to straighten out that radiator support.
