Thats sucks bro. I hit a coyote a couple of months back in my Accord which i had a knock off kit on and it didnt break thebumper just where it bolts to the fender and i ended up grinding down the bumper on the ground till i came to a stop. So no more fiberglass for me, back to oem.

Racoon = 1
Fadiss = 0


Just kidding, I almost hit a dear 2 days ago on a back road, I would have been dead or at the hospital if it wasn't for my good brakes and my horn, he moved instead of looking at me with that stupid face, thank God!

But damn, i didn't know you get that big of a damage with hitting small object like coon.

No haha... but I did have to drive to my friends place with a cat hanging out of my bumper including on the freeway. I tried to brake from 90mph to 0 in hopes he would come flying out but no such luck (not on freeway). It ended up being a two man job to remove him since the grille had wedged him in good... The cat besides from being dead was physically ok, hardly any blood and no deformation, I guess its just the force from the impact that got him...there is a big crater in my A/C condenser now

If that happened to me, there's NO WAY i can even get closer to that thing or near my car. I'm paying someone to clean up the mess. ekkkkkkk

guys, as said before that damage is not typical from hitting a racoon if you have OEM parts. Only reason the bumpers broke so badly was because it was fiberglass... I too would never buy any fiberglass bumpers, they are just a waste of money if you are driving the car regularly.

Poor racoon
