haha well on my way to Atco a little deer decided it wanted to play chicken with me, and I guess you can say I won:twisted:, oh but now I'm only left with a cracked bumper :(. So anyway I picked up a new cellphone with a 3.2mp camera and here is a few pics of the damage:

Yea all I need is a front bumper cover which I'm going to have the body shop find me an oem one and then get it painted. The car goes off to the body shop tomorrow for the estimate to see how much damage they say there is.

if you're paying it out of pocket- I would honestly pull it off myself. get a front bumper from gmpartsdirect.com and just bring it to a shop to paint. you'll save a decent chunk of change

the car has full coverage but the deductable is $500. I would of almost rather got a bumper cover and did it myself and paid like $800 for the insurance company to not know about it, but whatever. The body shop wrote it up for $2300 in work. What they're getting me new in OEM parts: Bumper cover,grille, license plate bracket, energy absorber, new headlights(supposedly they run $350 each:shock:), and they'll be repainting a section of my ss hood I just had painted back in July at the same place.Also tell me how the little red white and blue camaro emblem on top of the nose cost $50? lol

haha, I was kind of weary of opening my lid because I just installed my FTRA but surprisingly the windshield is the only thing that got a little bit of guts on it.

All you have to do is google bmw deer (although it is debated it could be a fox)
but there's no real "story" to go with it besides how fast he was driving

thanks, but all of this stuff is getting replaced at the body shop monday. The insurance company already has the claim taken care of so its too late for me to do it myself.

well supposedly,
Driving on the autobahn in Germany at 140mph in his BMW Z4,the Driver Hit a Deer...
The deer disappeared...
The driver stopped and wondered where did the deer go.......???
For all you deer hunters, this is how you pack a 150lb deer into a BMW Z4 convertible....
theres a few more pictures, nothing distinguishable though.

91drop top....that's really f'up.
man one day me and a buddy was coming out of Etown after a friday night racing with his 89 TTA and almost got taken out by a Deer. Good thing his car was low enough and the deer cleared the hood.
