deer slayer
on my home tonite....about 400 meters from home and BOOM! damn deer ran right in front of me. FNA! Didn't have time to even hit the FN brakes. Fortunately the 55 is built like a tank and all it did was bend in the front grill. Venison anyone??? haha.

HAHA you're a lucky man! I let my lady drive us home from the bar and she slides into curb on a rainy night 
I'm glad to hear that a smashed grille is the worst that came out of this.
I remember another member a few months back hit a deer and thing flipped up on his windshield and totaled the car.

just went down to the garage and looked at it again...front grill is completely toast. Nice big bloody "stuff" on the right quarter panel. The hood is not lining up perfectly with the quarter panel and that may be b/c the grill is pushed up into the hood. Not sure. Also a dime sized dent on the side that should be able to be fixed easily. Coulda been worse for sure.

Scary stuff and glad you are okay.

Thanks Jakpro, I defintely feel pretty fortunate not only for myself but the E sustained very little "visible" damage. I'm due for a B service and scheduled that for next week. Also going get an estimate on any other damage that may have occured.
