Most of the stuff on the side is hair, or just crud scraped off the deer onto the paint. My paint is pretty rough prior to the accident so you might just be seeing that. If you see the crack at the lower left of the side picture.. youll see separating bondo. I did that a few months ago to fix a dent (first try with bondo), looked perfect until I hit a cone on that spot at autox, and it separated the bondo. Live and learn.

It dices, is slices and it even Julian’s it is the Porsche 944. Fine German engineering that no only make a great car but a fine animal killing tool.

Well at least you know exactly where to look for any suspension damage, just follow the splat marks!

I hit a dog that ran right in front of my girlfriends car a long time ago and went straight over it like that and saw the bloody rolling mess in the rear view mirror after the car stopped bouncing over it. Nasty mess that was.

I think you need more than that to bend suspension parts. It's not like sheetmetal or plastic...I hit one 4 years ago coming out of the ditch in my blind spot (left windshield post)and it messed the front of the car...luckily a Pontiac Sunfire, not the 944 !

Mmmm, tasty.

I'd hose it off and at least get the alignment checked. If anything got bent or tweaked, it would probably show up in your alignment.

But imagine the story from the deer's perspective. He goes home, gets on the deer forums, and posts pics of how this leaky porsche left PS fluid all over him.
