DAMN RACCOON destroyed my SE lip

Hey guys ive got a SE lip on my EB GSR IX and the other night a raccoon decided to run out in front of me and I hit it which destroyed my SE lip! Are the SE lips still availible from the Mitsubishi or am I hosed? Since I don't have 50 posts yet I can't post up a WTB in the market place. Any help here would help guys. Thanks

O and which piece is it that you need to make the SE lip fit on a GSR? If it's that small bar that's above the lip centered on the bumper cover just below the FMIC that thing got trashed to

Yeah it was a head shot, pretty messy. Fur all over the car to. Crazy thing is I live out in the country and not 30 secs before I hit it I was thinking of a deer running out in front of me from a corn field, which they just cut most of them down, so my caution factor was allready high. Then the raccoon darts out from behind a tree! Crazy! I'm not the type of person how enjoys hunting, or hurting animals but I was so pissed that if that thing would have still been alive I would have shot it!

Did you get a fur coat on your car outta that lol? I still think I'd take a 5# rabbit at 80 over a 25# raccoon at 45 any day.

Not of the raccoon, to messy. But I've got a couple pics of the damage to my car but I'm using an iPhone and can't post pics to the forum. It accutually ****ed my bumper cover up a little to but I think it can be fixed. It all gonna have to be repainted anyways cause there's some nasty spider webbing in the clear coat on the cover were I hit the raccoon.
