Default Hit a Deer ( pics added)

Yep, is been a bad week for S2000's in Orlando, first Nick and now me. Driving about 45mph and a deer ran out of the woods and could not stop in time. Got the bumper, windshield, passenger door. Air bags did not go off. No one was hurt but possibly the deer, was so pissed off I did not stop. Anyway does anyone know of a good body shop in Orlando? Had a bad experience at Goggin so they are not in the running.

Thanks in advance

Good luck.

Sorry to hear about that. We had a slew of these accidents about two years ago or so. I may park mine until number three happens!

Man , I just saw Nick's , and now this ?! This is getting scary . Anyways , glad you're alright and hope to see you back in the game soon . I've had good luck with K&J Customs also on Forsyth Rd. . Excellent colormatching from those guys . As far as Collision Center , well , I've heard mixed reviews with about a 50/50 split on the positives and negatives . I haven't ever used them , just word of mouth . Just check 'em out thoroughly and don't sign the release until you're 100% satisfied with the work . Good luck .

Jeremy

I just read a thread in The Gallery (w/ pics) about a guy (not in FL) who rolled his S because he swerved to miss a deer. Car went off the road, slid on a grassy incline & rolled onto the roof. At least your's isn't like that! (Gotta find the silver lining somewhere, right?)

Yes, I have a couple of Pictures but not sure how to post them or even if I can. If someone can PM me with their personnel email then I will send the pics to them and he can post them. Be careful out there, someone else has to get it and that will make three and the curse will be lifted. From the looks of it no frame damage just bolt on parts. One good thing is I thought I would be out $500 for the deductable but as is turns out, animal strikes will be $100 deductable.
