So i was coming home last night from a friends house when i saw a deer cross the road in front of me i slowed down assuming that deers always travel in packs and there probaly would be more. All of a sudden a deer slams into the side of my car. The estimate is $4064.14

I try to keep this car in such good shape i never got into any accidents or anything but between my headlights getting stolen and this, I realized i just have bad luck.

damn yo, deer suck.

Wow bro, sorry to hear about your misfortune. Hate to see things like that happen to such a beautiful car. Just a side note, those are some odd looking dent marks though, I see one impact in the front and one in the rear. Did the dear hit your car twice or maybe the deer was spun around after the initial impact?

Funny, it just so happens that the first two people to respond to your thread both have an SSM TL-S just like you

well he pretty much went head first into the mirror then his rear slammed into the rear door, yea, i guess you could say he sorta did a 180

damm that sucks
sorry man.

What happened to the deer after?

Bummer. Sucks. Ive seen that myself on a car or 2 of my own

well i got out of the car and it was nowhere to be found, probaly limped into the forrest

Damn thats fucked up. Your TL now looks like a daily BEATER lmao Nah but that sucks. I have no idea what its like to live by deer. I live in the burbs so i wouldnt know what its like but shit, id be pist if a deer did that damage to my TL.

thats ass....that deer needs to be turned into dog food, or jerkey of some sort :-P

That must have scared the $hit out of you!!! Slowing down to let a deer cross, and BAM right into your drivers side..

sorry about your misfortune.. glad to hear you're ok.

oh i fucking jumped when that shit hit i thought i was gonna have a heart attack, it hit so damn hard the whole car shook

Wait till one jumps out in front of you and ou hit it head on! (hope that never happens though)

dam man sorry to hear that those deer are nasty but at least he didnt have a antler to come through the window and make things worse for you...good luck man

did more than one hit?

sorry to hear that..That sucks..

i mean no offense by laughing.... but damn, waht luck that it runs INTO you... opposed to in front of you..
sorry .

im pretty sure it was just one

wow... that's some heavy damage... sorry bro.

how did it make 2 huge dents? i mean they are like 4 feet away. did it realize it wasn't going through the car and backed up and tried again?


f'ing deere are retarted.


we rented a car once and there was some glass on the back seat. the rental place said that some lady hit a dear and it jumped right when she hit it and broke the windshield.

consider your self lucky. go buy a gun and get your hunting license and make a difference about it. its amazing how many deer you can kill in a season.

My advice: Move to Cali. (you'll just have to dodge bullets)

There are deer all over CA; but as you move closer to the center of LA, the number of deer drop, as the number of bullets rise...

Ouch! That sucks that even deers do hit-n-runs. You said you noticed a deer running in front of your car before this happened. What if it was a doe, and that the deer that hit you did it on purpose. Maybe it was a male and it thought you were a danger to his girl. Anyway, no one can blame you for slowing down, I would've too. Hopefully this will inform readers that confront this situation in the future to get the hell outta there as quick as is safely possible.

Dude, that's messed up. Glad you're alright, though. The deer could've hit the windows and shattered the glass all over you.

Judging by the estimate, I'm guessing they are going to replace the door sheetmetal altogether? It would be pretty tough to pound those bishes out.

yea im getting whole new sheet metal, i dont think they would be able to pound those out

Wow, sorry about the bad luck That had to be scary as hell...thinking you dodged the proverbial bullet then bam! you get blind sided....

That has to be frustrating...its very obvious you painstakingly take care of your car...such a set back. Could buy a supercharger with what it will cost you to get that fixed.

was the reason you parted out was to sell the car? if so, that sucks even more..

that sucks man! About 3 weeks ago I was a few inches from hitting one at 80mph! The fucking deer was walking across the highway and luckily there weren't any cars near me b/c I swerved on the side of the road and fishtailed my car, but I got it under control luckily. I saw one tonight but it was about 15 ft. away.

damm man, sorry about that. I hope you get it fixed soon. The car was looking so fresh too.

i'm sorry...but i have to admit that's pretty hilarious!
i dont think there are deers where i live so, does the insurance cover these kind of things?

atleast u didnt hit it head on..

i hit a deer, u make superstreet then u kill bambi , i think the deer in CT got somethin against TLs

Hmmm das fuxd up man.... But to replace the door skin shouldnt b that much.... That guy is ging u... Cheap fix... Go to a junk yard and buy a fender and 2 doors.... Theres a site u can check out.... car-part.com...

U can check all the states in USA....

BTW what size profile are ure tires... And wha kinda TEINS u got???

Whew. Now I understand why my sisters are so paranoid about deer. They live in the deep country and drive 35 mph down 55 mph backroads after the sun goes down. I never understood why, but now I do.

ouch! that looked more like a pack of deers hit you, not one. i got deers all over my work and sometimes i feel like they can just ram into me. could be doing a deer gang initiation or something. boy sometimes i thought about jumping on them and see how far i can go.

ohh man i know ur pain i jus got my car out the shop cuz of a damn deer

when will these damn deers learn to stay out the road and that headlights arent their friends
and i hope insurance got u covered, i paid my damage out the pocket no fun my friend no fun

A good body shop man could, BUT it would be alot more cost effective to get new doors/skins

...Damn....I would have got out and fucked that deer up for messin' with the TL.....good thing you didn't get hurt...

damn man, sorry to hear that, but glad you're ok...
