Pics from the deer carnage. . .

My CSI like deduction skills have informed me it went down something like this:

1) fist impact was on left side bumper/ 1/4 panel area resulting in a "popped headlight", turnsignal, damage to the bumper, front quarter panel and possible suspension damage as a result of hitting the wheel when turned. . .





The ****er's head then decided to introduce itself to my hood. . .



while his body said "hello" to my doors. . .



full shot. . .



and now. . .in order for me to get my speed fix. . .I relegated to this. . .

A single tear just ran down my cheek. Crazy I was just watching the Vossen Vid of your car the other day. Looks like an easy fix.

Sucks man..but I'm a deer crushing pro. Call me if you need advice. But I'm watching my Skins embarrass your beloved G-Men, so you're gonna have to wait.

If you need a car, just come grab the keys to your choice at my crib.

My wife's first comments when I told her were:

So, he texted you at 1:30 am telling you about this, so that means they were out partying and didn't invite us. Why does Mrs. Motorkas hate me? They're on the naughty list....

I hope the deer is ok, otherwise PETA will be showing up to see you.

Funny, my friends that hunt come home empty handed every weekend, and we get 2 or three a year. Ill tell them to sell their riffles and buy an E55. Better odds

Here is the E55 fitment:

Next time, much easier to just use a Baretta Shotgun !!! But I am sure the deer looks much worse than your car.
Must be up around Darnestown, MD to see wildlife. I grew up in Silver Spring, so all I saw was cement !!!!
Good Luck on the fix.

BT,
Glad you're OK. We will have to meet up once your car is good to go. The damage doesn't look that bad at least. I'm sorry this had to happen.

Take care buddy

I would say that is minimum of $6 g's. The hood, fender, 2 doors and possible suspension damage.

yeah - i'm hoping it'll be fairly straight forward. . .either way - I estimate it's going to be down for a month minimum

Wow...that really sucks BT. We crushed one in my wife's car on Halloween night. Trick or treat...fresh deer jerky! Bright side, at least you weren't flossin' on your vossens and weren't you planning e63 front upgrade?
Yeah - I'm convinced what "saved" me was I was literally running "the Ring" for an hour in a 430 on Forza before I went to pick up wifey. . .quick reflexes baby

Yeah - it just came on Friday - gotta love the timing



I definately feel your pain. I hit a wild hog on Snake Road down here. Thank god I was in my 500. Glad you wasnt hurt.

not poop - blood and snot. . .

- I actually read that to the misses. . .nope - she was out by herself and I was home playing video games. . .She's been actually asking about you two but tis the season of holiday parties (she was out with her college friends and TRUST ME - those single 30 year olds - oh good Lord - sometimes it's just better to stay at home and play video games. . .Thanks for the offer for the rides brother but worse case scenario I can just use my company car or hers, I'm going to try to get it into the shop by next Friday so I can get a loaner and I'll just take that up to CT to visit the family. Besides - guaranteed - I borrow the Rover - I hit a FAMILY of deer

And Douche Bag - Bears fan. . .the loser who's a Giants fan is Marcus

had to laugh at the game setup! LOL!!

what a jerk! that deer really served up a load man!!

!!!!!!!!
Totally and completely necessary Thanks brother!!!!!!!!

I know right - you think I'd be more carful considering I have about ten living in our backyard



BT,
Glad you're OK. We will have to meet up once your car is good to go. The damage doesn't look that bad at least. I'm sorry this had to happen.

Take care buddy
Thanks and hope you're feeling better!!!! I literally was experimenting with pulls in different gears for you so you can see. . . Once it gets fixed - it's ON. . .but trust me - pulley, headers, tune= at highway speeds. . .

I would say that is minimum of $6 g's. The hood, fender, 2 doors and possible suspension damage.
Brother - that's the bare minimum. . .the pics don't show it but yeah it's going to get up there quick. . .at this point since the re-sales shot (and I'm not selling her anyways). . .I'm thinking about just getting her completely repainted since half the car is going to be repainted anyway. . .

over the top. . .not at all - had my wife's 85 year old grandmother in the seat play GT5 (use a different steering wheel for PS3) and she broke into a sweat driving the SLS on the ring. . .

Also had my nephew in the seat (we worked the pedals for him

Argh! This is a clear example of Darwinism. Opening day, you cannot step on a twig at 100 yards away without spooking one.
Then you have a Beast coming down the road in the dead of night, head lights glaring, s/c whistling away, exhaust rumbling with the sound of 500hp on tap, and the son of a ***** makes a bee line for you! Doesn't make sense. Maybe he was trying to car jack you???

Best of luck with the repairs. That E63 conversion is going to look awesome when you are all done!
