Wow, I've hit a few deer but this takes the prize! Glad to hear it isn't totaled out and you're still in one piece.

our buy/sell forum is where you'll find the parts you need, and for cheap.
otherwise, ebay and car-parts.com are some alternatives.
also i'll be selling a set of oem headlamps in about 3 weeks time if you're interested.

Sucks man. I hit a deer just north of Osoyoos last fall. Stupid deer. Best of luck on finding parts. Where are you located? There are some forum members in AB that might be able to help.

Considering that you hit a bear, car doesn't look too bad. I expected more damage.

Hmm I think I have those lights in my back area, I'll check when I get home. Just missing 1 of 4, and I can't recall which one.

For this situation, I would let them go for shipping costs.

They should be good, tabs and all.

If I had the spare parts, I'd donate them to you just because of an epic thread.

This thread is too much to bear!


Actually I do have a 746 Torquoise Pearl USDM driverside fender in good shape. Zip code is 76017. I also have a driverside turnsignal and side indicator for that in good condition. $25 + shipping and theyre yours.

zfjohnson07 may have the headlight and bumper and he live close to me. We could bundle the shipping together.
