Nah, God just hated that deer for some reason. sorry to hear that. how bad is the damage?

You should mount the deer antlers on your hood!

I had a friend in college who hit a cow during a midwest trip and he actually DID mount the horns on the hood of his Accord.

well, the hood is dead, the passenger side light and corner light are dead, grill is dead, bumper pushed in but popped back out. car wont start. BUT now that i need a hood, im getting a carbon fiber one....need headlights, i won some bmw lights off ebay, ordered clear corners today and clear gts light covers to make the bmw lights flush. i need to get it painted too so check my other post!! this might not be so bad, now i just gotta get it towed from like 90 miles away and put in the shop cause its too cold n stuff to do it myself.

So your car won´t start after you wrecked it uh? Does it at least turn over? Does it kinda feel like its just not getting any fuel? Thats because its probably not. I was in an accident almost a year ago. I hit my brakes hard to avoid hitting a pedestrian and the guy in the Chevy truck behind me couldn´t stop in time. Talk about whiplash. Anyway the car instantly died and wouldn´t start after that. I thought it was odd because the car was hit in the back. Turns out that a sensor was triggored and the fuel pump was shut off completely. If you open your trunk and take off the molding on the sides, you will notice a little box that says something like fuel shutoff. All you have to do is push the little button and tada you car will probably start. Also you can tried unconnecting and reconecting the wire attached to it. If this doesn´t work I don´t know what to tell ya. PA probably has the highest number of deer collisions a year. My sister totalled my mom´s neon because of one and my friend wrecked his dodge colt. That is why I support HUNTING SEASON!

yeah i shoulda checked that but i couldent think of it before i left. it doesnt matter my clutch/throwout bearing is screwed and its getting towed in to get fixed. then when it gets out im puttin the headlights in and everything

 

[Nascort]

Sorry bout that man.... could have been worse... the deer could have been kicked up through you windwheild, then kicked you while in there.... That happened to one of my friends....

I hit a bird at 100mph.... that caused no damage but could have if I was in traffic.... that bird made one big splat... couldnt see out the window anymore. That was freeky!!!!

A bit of cheap insurance guys,deer whistles.I saw way too many cars totalled by deer and elk when I was driving tow truck in Cle Elum Wa.At least one a week during the spring and fall as they migrate up and down the mountain.(you know the elk from the show northen exposure?well I used to eat at the roslyn cafe´ all the time)You are lucky to be alive.I had em on my scort because of what I have seen and for like $10 if you live or travel where it is a problem it is well worth it.I got black ones and most people don´t even know what they are but with the gts black outs,black gts bug guard and blacked out grille they kinda added to the scheme on a calypso green 4 door.Don´t think just do it.Deer are under insured,and quite indigent.

 

[scortegegt]

yeah i bought some o those last night. i gotta drive through the mountains too much to not get some.

 

[birddog]

yep, PA has a boatload of deer. I personnally have hit three totaled 1 car and hard core mangled the other two. onw of which was my 94 gt. I have the pics somewhere. And yes I support hunting - bambi tastes good!!!
