Ok I am pissed off today...last night I hit a hare (so what you say...and yes, I have hit many of them before, but...
This little bastard damaged my baby (ie car) :mad: The lower front bumper has been zip tied back together, the upper bit is hanging down, the fog light bracket broke off, and the paint is peeled off :b:
Here are some pics...the third one is of the other side which is undamaged. I'll take a pic of the hare tomorrow. Oh well at least I won the fight.

Damn, that's some nasty damage from a small animal. Sorry to hear of your 'harey' drive.

Sad thing is if I hadn't lowered my car the day before I may have missed it....
Yeah only 'structural' damage is the screw holes ripped out ;) Good thing too cos it's $160 just for the lower bumper :eek:
I'll get it repainted in a few weeks, but now thinking of what else to paint while I'm at it....
- Mirrors for sure
- Remove black side strip and paint under it
- Remove rear black strip (is half gone already)
- Would love to get the boot debadged but would have to paint the whole boot :( Did a photochop though...looks damn fine.
- Door handles (bit iffy on this one....they are pretty faded though)
Tell me what you think :wave:
