Deer =1, Two week old WW = 0

Argh! On my drive home tonight, a deer hit my driver's side passenger door. I was slowing down to make a right turn and I hear this loud "BAM!". I flinch, look at the rear view and see a big blur go off to the side. I pull over after making the right and see this...



The damage seems to be contained to the door. There is a slight dent on the rear quarter panel by the gas door but I think a dent guy can fix that. I didn't even try to open the door for fear that it won't close.

I am so p1ssed right now. The car has 570 miles on it and I have been babying it. I was looking forward to seeing what it can do tomorrow.

a new repair normally matches up fairly well... on the downside expect rust after 5 years on the areas that require metal work
