I doubt the cops were going to look for the deer at 6am. I dont know if they contacted the game warden. I sure as hell wasnt thinking about it at that time.
That deer didnt stand there waiting for me to hit him. We waited for me to cross the road in front of me. Dumb ***.
A friend of mine owns a bodyshop and he told me he has had so many cars to fix because of deers. The adjustor from my insurance company said the same thing, all they did today was look at cars damaged because of deers.

I would have jumped out and busted a cap in that damn animal. That is just tragic that he got away after doing that to you...

That sucks that it got up and ran away. If a deer ever runs out in front of my car and ****s it up, I'd at least want its head hanging over my mantle as a souvenir.

Deer walked away? I would've ran it over again, either that, have him tow my z, like a sled, to the body shop.

Hell yeah, get out and chase that damn thing down! It won't be running fast or far after a Z smacks it like that...

Find the damn thing in the woods and call all my buddies up to run a train on it while it gasps it's last breaths...

LOL, okay, I was just joking about the train part....

Airbags typically trigger on a sudden decel(eration). Most of the time you can ram right through vehicles and not be bothered with pushing the airbag back in the steering wheel.

Well the GOOD news is that you should ask the place that fixes you Z to order the 06 headlights. You could just pay the difference for the other one. A buddy of mine owns a collision shop and he had a 03 Z with the same type of damage in. Fender, bumper cover, hood, light. BUT the one he was fixing also hit the right door. He had the whole front end ripped off!!!!

Man, hitting a deer is my biggest fear while i'm driving ... at least it didn't come through your winshield ...
To quote Tommy Boy, "Sorry about your car man. That sucks."

Thats insane. Im sorry. Out here in Southern California we have the illegals running across the roads. They bounce off and keep running to when you hit them.

I can't believe you didn't get the deer's insurance information. However you do have a good "deer print" on your hood, so the cops may be able to get a match from their deer database.

All kidding aside... That sucks.

The airbags didnt go off.
As far as replacing the headlights with the 06, i believe the insurance is only going to replace one since the other one was not damaged. I didnt get the paperwork yet to see what all exactly they are doing. I believe the fenders are fixable they said. But the hood and bumber and engine cover and headlight definitely need to be replaced.

don't go with '06 haedlights, they are butt-ugly. What are those things plastic zits? Just saw them at the SF Auto Show. A few people around me, many Z owners all groaned when they saw what they had done to the lovely looking Z. I guess the Nissan people felt like they had to do something, but they made some very poor choices for '06, IMHO.
