oh and a jimmy can i get some help on where to find a gt/cs grille surround?
Looks like it's time for a new hood, new grille and new bumper!! You probably don't feel as bad as if you were to be hit by a dumb driver, but look at all the positives! All 3 of them

I got mine from www.newfordparts.com. Even with shipping included it cost less than what they charge at my dealership

Wow sorry to hear the man! I still have my stock gt bumper I can sell to you for cheap. Not sure how much shipping will be, but all it needs is to be painted white. Not sure if a grabber blue bumper would look to good lol

Sorry to see your car got all messed up. You're lucky that deer went off to the side, I have seen them flip up on the hood and into the windshield. And if they have a big rack you better duck.

Depending where you are in NC that deer wont be there tomorrow to take pictures. Some redneck is probably guttin that thing right now!!! I know that would be true where I am from.

One jumped out in front of me last night on the way home from work, I smashed the breaks and it actually ran, I literally almost crapped myself.

Does this gentleman enjoy venison by any chance?LOL



Sorry to hear about your car markkk. Glad you're okay man. I know hitting a deer can be a bit nerve racking to say the least. Was in the car with my dad a few years ago when he hit a buck (10 pointer). The damn thing came up the hood of the car nearly through the windshield. Probably would have killed us if it's antler hadn't gotten caught in the hood.
