well i was cruising down the freeway last night at about 9:30 in the number 2 lane when a big ass german shepard jumped out infront of me from the fast lane! i did not want to swerve and hit another car, and it happened so fast that i coundnt do anything. i felt horrible for the dog, but what can you do. i heard pieces hanging off the cars, but i didnt want to stop on the freeway, because its just not safe. so i put my hazards on and made it off the freeway... well in my head i was picturing a smashed bumper around the fog light area and maybe a smashed headlight. well i got out of the car to see this...







i cracked both radiators, the ac condensor, the maf sensor snaped off the intake, and you can see the body damage... i am glad that i was not hurt, because it could have been much worse, but it sucks that this happend.

 

DAMN. looks like you hit a deer

 

pics of the dog?

 

negative ghost rider the pattern is full

 

Sorry to hear and see that. I hope everything works out and it gets fixed correctly.

 

i have no idea what happened to the dog, i wasnt able to get off the freeway for about a mile but i am sure he is done.

thats my biggest worry is that its never going to look right again, but its not that bad so hopefully it will not be too noticable.... im just pissed that i will have to be w/o a car for a few weeks!

 

What about that retrofit work!?

 

You dont wanna see what it looks like to hit a deer. Thats nothin. Man that really sucks and at least your ok. Whos dog was it?

 

And I hate to say it........but where is the blood?

 

i actually still have the headlight but i took it off because it was just hanging there by the wires and just the housing to the headlight broke. so i will be able to take apart the headlight, take out the shroud and reflector, and put it in a new housing so i am very happy about that

well there is only very lil on the bumper that i didnt even notice until today... but if you look in the intake pic, i believe that is dog ****.

 

Damn that's pretty close. You beat the **** out of him. But good that your retrofit is still good.

 

weve tried calling animal control, cal-trans, and anyone we can think of to see if we can find out whos dog it was, but no luck yet. i mean it sucks for the dog but somebody should be responsible for this.

 

YOU PUPPY MURDERER!

 

seriously i felt so bad for the dog, and i still cant get the image out of my head. this dog was well over 100 lbs and i love big dogs, espically german shepards.

 

I bet you a million bucks the dog feels way worse about it then you do.

Sorry man I'm an animal lover too and I'd HATE to hit a dog like that. I seriously would be a wreck myself. I don't care what anyone says I'd be crying like a baby while running back to the dog in the road.

 

Reminds me of what NJHK said a few days ago. "All dogs go to heaven". But he said it in some perverted way that I cant remember.

 

haha dosn't it feel like such a traumatizing thing to kill a animal with your car?
Man I hate that feeling...

sorry about your car man, looks like it took a good hit

 

i wouldnt doubt it, thanks for a good laugh

it was probably somthing about buttseckz and doggy style heaven

i hate not having a ******* car!!!!

 

x2!! I've been out a car for too damn long already!

 

trust me i kno the pain i was w/o my license for a year up until this past july! now i have to go a few weeks w/o a car! this ******* sucks.... whats up w/ your car?

 

yo im so sorry, i member how much work my moms minivan had to have when she hit a deer only going about 25, not even highway speed. Sorry for the car, but at least you will be getting it back kinda soon

 

thanks man, and i know that it could have been a whole lot worse so i am thankful, just very pissed off also

 

Had an accident...thing is that it wasn't even my fault. Rawr.

The link in that thread has pics of all the damage.

 

Looks like it is time for a VIS carbon fiber hood.

 

wow thats pretty bad... what hood are you getting? i was thinking about the ss cf hood, but im not that big of a fan of cf... also the rk sport fiberglass hood looks like it should have came factory on our car, but it is just as much as a cf one so i couldnt see paying that much for it. im hoping to get a lil extra play money outta the insurance co. to have a lil fun w/
