Default Deer vs 928

Saturday night returning from a wedding out of no where BAM a deer runs out of the woods and and decides to use my car as a brake.
Drivers side fender and door are dented up. Didn't seem to break the paint though. Some fur wedged in the wheel/tire pinch.
Anyone deal with Hagerty on something like this ?

If anyone near King, NC spots deer with a black round mark on its left side I want to have a word with it. I imagine it looks like the outside wall at a NASCAR track.

In Michigan...this is just a matter of time, if you travel during the evening hours.

Sorry to see this has happen. Hopefully, the repairs will be minimal.

Brian.

Sorry to hear, remember the Deer hit you

Had a similar front fender hit this this past weekend on Friday night going up North in the Jeep GC, although the Jeep will need a new front fender, it was badly ripped and curled inward

I too traveled North for a wedding in an 86 but did so in the mid morning/day hours, they are definitely on the move this time of year.

They may be able to get that dent out, man that Aluminum in our cars is tuff stuff.

Let's see... hmmmm... deer....
1) They eat my garden
2) They ruin my fruit trees
3) They play chicken with my car.

And deer season in FAR TOO SHORT in my opinion..

Sorry for your damage, but I sure am glad that it wasn't any worse.
