Unhappy My bro hit a rabbit in my FB

It happened about a week or two ago. He was coming home from his g/f's and a rabbit ran out in front of him. He didn't have enough time to react. It nearly destroyed my front end, and now, tie raps are holding it up. I'll get pics. up as soon as possible. This really stinks! It must have been a pretty big rabbit because it did some damage. Later.

Dude, have you ever seen a full grown rabbit? They can get up to 10-15 lbs. I was letting my brother drivemy car because I had no choice. His MX-6 was broke and my dad told him to ive my car til he got his fixed. When I say, "Alot of damage" I don't mean like he hit a bowling ball at 120 MPH. He took about a 1' long chuck out and half the front spoiler is falling off. You'll just have to see it for yourself. Later.

jack rabbits out here in AZ can get to be as big as medium size dogs.
I once saw a rabbit standing on its hind legs sniffing at something in a tree and it must have been maybe 4 - 4.5 feet tall!

How large is it?
I can probably host it if it isn't too big,
though somebody else will probably be able to host it no matter what the size....

Anyone? =)

ouch, that sucks for the car... and the rabbit
i've seen the movie clip of the DTM car hitting the rabbit. the rabbit just kinda explodes... it's gross! Anyways, you have a really clean car, and I hope you can get it fixed! And obviously the lesson is: never hit rabbits

happy rotoring

I hope that thing suffered a terrible death! Screwed up my car because it decided to cross the road! I hope it has a broken hip and gets eatin' by a wild dog! God, I hate rabbits.
