I just had a deer disaster :-/ - 3000GT/Stealth International Message Center

Wellllll, driving my girlfriend home I took a turn onto a back road probably wasn't even going faster than 45 mph. A very small deer jumped out to give me a high five and got guts all over the car. Basically there was ALOT of blood on the car and hair but all it did wast pop the plastic grill inward and ruin the plastic license plate holder thing. The left headlight's main bulb dropped inside the headlamp but NOTHING on the car is broken or cracked except it looks like the paint in extremely small spots has some tiny ripples from the plastic bumper flexing.

I got extremely lucky that there's really no damage but I was furious for an hour or so. BTW this was in my step dad's Mazda 6 not my piece of junk hyundai so you can imagine the thought of someone else driving your lovely car and hitting a dear with it and thinking that they ruined it.

LOL, all in all I thought a piece of the grill was lost around where I hit it so we looked with flashlights and stuff for the grill piece and when I got home and showed my mom the car I found the piece of grill wedged in the bumper so i'm really happy.

Although this wasn't a big dear and I wasn't flying down the road I must say that I'm absolutely amazed at the lack of damage this mazda received.

He has a new toy, so we're never going to see the vr4 for quite a while i think.
