hey man hard to understand your post you should put periods when you end your sentances this should be an easy fix though just take her apart and bend everything back and put it back together.
Good luck!

Also, if it had been me and I'd been able to chase it down, I would've KILLED that deer - no remorse. The car means a few million times more to me than some stupid deer that waited until a loud thing was barreling down the road to cross. :P

Check the damage to my car after hitting a deer at highway speeds:
I certainly hope I broke this ************'s hip or both of it's hind legs. I hope it's still alive and suffering on the side of the road.
Would it be illegal for me to get a hunting license, then go shooting deer, only just leave them to rot in the woods? My AK-47 and AR-15 are more than enough to take out some deer.
Onto the carnage:
Surprisingly little blood, but there was lots of fuzz and a little bit of meat in things.
Do any of y'all think I fucked up the deer?
From my calculations, I hit the deer at about 55-60 MPH.
So I was on I-66 in Faquier County, mile marker 22 or so... I've driven this highway many times. It's very rural.I had a small Chevy SUV running cop bait about 300 feet in front of me, running at little north of 80 MPH sustained...
That's how I am able to live in Virginia and speed like I so. I am NEVER the first man in line. 20 above the limit or 80 MPH, whichever is lower is reckless driving... It's a criminal offense, not a traffic offense, requiring a court appearance. The first man in line takes the hit. (Molotovman, are you listening?)
Anyhow, I see the SUV hit the brakes and swerve to the right lane... As soon as he leaves the left lane, I see three deer. Does by the looks of them, no antlers... Fully grown, their heads above the roofline of the RX-7, their torso's about even with the windshield.
One one-thousand.
I hit the brakes, but I didn't swerve. The deer looked at me and couldn't make up her mind... Left into the median or right into the woods. Make up your ******* mind ******* so that I can go the other way!!!!!
Two one-thousand.
I consider going right like the SUV. The deer heads left. Still on the brakes, on the threshold of locking.
Three one-thousand.
BAM!
I hit the deer in the hindquarters and then can't see **** as my driver's headlight is destroyed. The deer spins around and smacks my driver's door taking out my sideview mirror. I see its face smack my window as I remember I'm still driving, I should probably look out the front window. Plus my wife's in the car behind me.
I get it on the narrow *** left shoulder and survey the damage. My wife pulls up behind and asks WTF happened. She was just showered in car parts and fuzz. Then she freaks out as she sees the front of my car. She never even saw the deer. She was on the phone. (Women...
)
Can't pop the hood, It's caught on the destroyed headlight bucket.
I use the only tool I have handy... I drop kicked it and shoved it over.
Radiator is good. Support is bent, but everything's solid.
Nothing more to do here, so I headed home.
Time to find another shell and part this bitch out.
Shame too, it's rust free on the underside. The pinch weld isn't even bent from jackasses jacking it up improperly.

Lol my buddy was driving up from North Carolina. Hit a deer at highway speeds in northern Pennsylvania. Passenger side, but seriously the damage is exactly the same as what you 2 have posted. I threw on a new hood and headlight cover, pulled the front bumper back out the 1/2" that it went in. My buddy was sad he damaged his car, but I was able to do all that before he even woke up the next morning.
The FC is officially great at sustaining a deer hit.

+1... I'm thankful for the shape and low stance of the RX-7. It damn near saved my life. Everyone who sees the minimal damage to the car says that I'm lucky that it didn't go through the windshield as it would have on a slightly higher sedan.

Hit a deer in an 04 Taurus station wagon on I-68 and insurance did total out the car. That was during an epic road trip and even with the damage, we made it from WV to DC and then back to CO.
Feckin insurance.

Deer are so stupid! I see so many dead deer on the highways, but hardly ever see any other dead animals. One of my friends had a deer run into the side of his truck once, most people around where I live have big diesel trucks and massive deer catcher bumpers.

I've managed to get lucky and never hit a deer.
Last night I got off work around 3am and went driving afterwards (jacked up on caffeine).
Just taking random roads and ended up coming out near the golf course here.
So I go ahead and cut down that road to head home.
I hit 60 coming up on the last s-curve beside the club house.
Slowing down, drop it into second.
As the *** scoots a little bit and I make it around the curve I see three or four deer.
Making love and what have you; all over the place.
I slow down, they trot off the road.

Indeed it was. Made it from Denver to the rally and all the way back in 74 hours. This was about 23 hours in, at about 1AM. There were 4 of us in the car and I was almost passed out in back so I only heard the hit.
