The Ultimate Appearance Mod!

This is the new "deer-in-the-bumper-at 45mph" modification. I think it looks okay but the deer wasn't too excited about it.

The car is getting fixed now (via State Farm) and will also get some brand new black headlights when I get it back.

All cosmetic as far as I could see. I drove it to the shop without a problem......after I used my hammer to pull the fender off of the tire.

First year I had my car I had similar damage. Total cost was about 5 thousand. But, you'd never know I was in a wreck.

I'm sorry man... those damn deer, they have no regard for traffic laws

But the black headlights should look sweet, and the fact that insurance covers it is definitely a bonus

I think its great you didn't stick to the "norm" of modifying. Instead of wide fenders, you crushed yours in. No big hood scoop, you went for the inverted flat spot look. I even like the idea of using your hood as an eyebrow for one light. Very diff and tastefully done! JK Glad to hear it'll all be fixed.
