    Oh Deer...

    Well the Roller Skate got its second deer. 45mph and the car still drives like nothing happened to it. No airbag deployment and the radiator is fine. Goes to show that toughness can be found in a small package. It's currently under the wrench getting repaired.

    Wow! That was a bit more than I expected it to be.

    Front bumper cover...hood...1 front fender? I was thinking maybe $2500?!?

    Add an airbag to that estimate and you're close to having the car totaled.

    Just curious,
    What was the cost breakdown for the individual parts?
    Hood = x $$$
    Bumper cover $$$
    Fender $$$

    Thanks

    Maybe the deer are hunting you down for being a Penguins fan

    Glad you're alright at least!
