Coyote Uppercut. New thread with pics.

Hey guys a while ago I mentioned that I hit a coyote at about 85 - 90 MPH. It took out a chunk of my bumper, and I haven't gotten around to taking pics until now.

Anyway, take a look. Other than a front bumper cover, I don't know what else I need to replace. I'll be asking hondaacuraworld and stuff, but if you guys have input please tell.

And yes, it did take away my aspec front.

and... the pictures don't lie. My car really is that dirty, only because I don't feel like there's a point to washing it with that big hole there.

Seems like you'll need a fender wall liner and also the underside liner.

Sorry to see that man but look at it this way atleast its only the front bumper which is easily replaceable yourself and didnt damage the fender or an ything else.

Also, what the heck happened to your rim is that a huge chunk I see missing from the outter lip? stay away from them curbs dude :-)

^^ you'll also need all the clips/screws that are now missing. Jesus, you got lucky that it's only the front bumper!

Well the chunk is another story, another time. Let's just say if I didn't hit the coyote, the damage I would've received would've been a lot worse than that chunk in my rim.

I already bought the bumper, so I don't think the type s bumper is an option.

Another thing, so I have a full aspec kit on the front. Do you guys think if I switched the front lip to something (regarding my tastes) else it would still look ok with the rest of the aspec kit?
