Wow, that's a lot of stuff

Hope it gets fixed soon and perfectly!

I'm more of a Guinness Draught fan myself.

Still awaiting my rental and full cost of the estimate

Wow, looks like Bambi did a number on you. Any chance insurance will let you substitute some aftermarket stuff?

nope

got the body shop to get a no quote on stock of aftermarket parts which is basically saying he can't get them

$5625 estimate total, I'm sure it will climb higher as they tear into it...

Sucks bro. I hit a deer back in August. My Z took it suprisingly well for the speed I was going. Just got it fixed a few weeks ago, finally. All you could really notice was a slight crease in my hood. Repair was almost 3k though. Good luck with your repair, glad you and your beer are ok.

I had four deer bolt in front of me in my residential area just a few mornings ago. Luckily I was able to see them coming and slow down in time. Glad you were not injured though and you will drive the Z another day. It sucks beyond imagination I'm sure. Hang in there!

At least the Guinness was okay, it'll help with the damages.

How about a Nismo front conversion? A yellow Nismo body kit would be sick.
