Default Roadkill + Carbon = :(

So I was driving down the road last night and there was a dead raccoon I smashed over as I was switching lanes! Now What? Here's the after math.
I think iam going for a new V2 nismo front end so any one want this setup its up for grabs PM me any offers! You can just take this to a body shop and have this painted

Dude, you gotta learn to watch the road for debris when you're rolling that low.

You can get this fixed, but it will most likely require you to have it painted.

damn dude, real sorry to hear what happened to you, i live in miami, fl and there is literally **** everywhere all over the roads all the time, the other day i did what you did, i was switching lanes and it was too late for me to do anything about what i was about to run over, it was a huge metal pole/pipe right in the middle of the f'ing highway. . . how my car survived in once piece is beyond me, it made me think twice before putting on my new rims and coil overs. Thank god i got twenties and im pretty much still stock height and i have it dropped almost all the way. i hope you can get it fixed for cheap, what someone else mentioned was right, you cant have nice things anymore wether it be dead raccoons or punk kids jealous of your things your always going to come home to a new scratch,ding, etc. good luck with the repair.

Yea 4 sure man I swear I got to look out for everything! in this car Either I have to park it way the fudge out there so no one door digs it, and when I do that Its more visible so I got to risk it that iam going to get a big key mark or some sort of damage when its out there,
Shoot about a mth ago some one threw a beer bottle at my car and broke my tail lights out! I ended breaking my freakn hand on the dudes face! not to smart but what to do, they messed with my baby!
Nice car = pay the price
