My S2000 vs large deer :0
Well I was driving to work the other morning going down I85 North. I had cruise control on at 70mph and suddenly my lights flash on a large deer in the center of my lane. Well I can tell you I yelled out some explicit words loudly and turned the wheel quickly to the left. Well it wasn't enough and the deer hit my passenger side. It made a loud thump and it actually wasn't as bad as I thought it would be until I pulled over and looked at the damage. My bumper is cracked, my light is pushed far in and doesn't work and my fender is crunched up so that the wheel well lining is rubbing up on the tire when I turn. Im really not happy considering that Fall Colors in next weekend and I really want to go. It looks and feels like it was all cosmetic damage so that makes me feel better and I considered cutting the wheel well plastic away from the front of the wheel so that I can still come to Fall Colors. Ill post pictures of the damage later today.

PM me when you know the full condition of your headlight. Not sure if the timing will be right for you, but I'll be down in Charlotte, NC weekend of Nov 1st if you need me to do a clearing for a replacement headlamp assembly, etc.
Also, keep Hardtopguy in mind for ordering any parts. He's quick, efficient, and he has a keen interest in helping S2000 owners on this board.
...Sorry about the deer. I swerved (successfully ) around two deer on I-81 coming back from VA Tech last Saturday morning around 3 am. Definitely leaves a stinky smell in one's shorts when that sort of meeting takes place...
