I recently hit a deer. Still waiting on insurance before I can get it to a shop, but looking at it, does anybody have a guess as to if there's frame damage?

From what I see, the top of the radiator support is bent back hard, it hit the exhaust manifold heat shield. Coolant reservoir hit the power steering reservoir. Headlight destroyed. Only damage to the passenger fender is the front is out of alignment. Gap with door/sideskirt is fine though.

I know that a shop will be able to tell me, but in the meantime, any opinions?

 

Frame (or what is called frame) starts back at the front door pillar. You are probably going to need a new radiator support and possibly a new subframe which is a bolt on part. It looks very fixable to me.

 

Is the deer okay? That looks like 6-7k in damage. Hope you got the deers insurance down.. Its fixable

 

eww looks nasty, i bet maybe 4k at least.

 

from what i see you will need it the hood, fender radiator support and head light thats it

 

do you want to sell the car? shoot me a pm if you do
