Ouch that sucks. Damage could have been much worse though, if you hit them mid jump they can come right through your windshield.

Did you at least claim the deer and strap it to the back of the Z?

gave it to the family that lived about 30' from where it landed, they came home from hunting empty handed so i figured they could use it.

just checked out the parts i'm gonna need via courtesyparts and up to a little over $2k for all the major parts being replaced, not including retainers/clips/fastener brackets. with labor and paint i see this being around $3.5k. crossing my fingers i don't need a radiator support but unable to open the hood...

Post a daylight pick when you get a chance, sounds like there is more damage than was visible from the pick.

Obviously somebody who hates Yellow 370Zs has put out a bounty on them. Wonder what the deer that survived will be getting.
On a serious note, hopefully it isn't to bad and you are back on the road soon.

dude i feel your pain, i really do, i had one bolt out infront of my Z a month ago while i was coming down the hill on my way to my house (literally 15 seconds away) i just had to get down the hill go straight and turn left BAM! in driveway. oh no! saw this deer coming out of my neighors fence line. slowed down to 20 mph turned my high beams on and blared the horn thinking it would scare it the other way. ....no go. ... it scared it into a flat out run, straight into drivers side left front fender. gave it a good dent, and slid down the entire length of my car. and then stood there looking at it like WHAT? i was pi$$ed i got out and chased the deer after i saw the extent of the damage. ... $2,489 worth. they might have to replace the door idk .

a month later, it was just put in the shop. now im waiting.

Yeah man I'm in NC as well and it seems like every night I see at least 1 set of deer. I'm to the point where I've been driving my jeep at night just in case

If we weren't chopping down so much forest. Deer smashings would seriously be reduced. They'd have a home to live in. My motto is. Hit a deer? Eat it. It prevents the deers life from going to waste. I haven't hit a deer yet., but I do have a game processing kit in the car.
