Rabbits are evil

Audrey will need a new inner fender well, right side molding, and the vent cover is now floating around in the bumper. Guess I'll have to take the bumper off and see if it needs to be replaced or just screwed back in.

I saw the thing run out into the road. For whatever reason it must have jumped, so instead of going under the car it hit the right corner of the bumper. Did more damage than I would have thought possible.

Coming back from the beach sunday morning around 630 am had a deer jump over the front of my MINI and just knew it was going to hit. I was surprised as he cleared the whole car. I did have to replace my shorts when I got home.

Geez, I hope this doesn't mean there will be no Easter this year...

There wasn't a basket of broken eggs at the scene was there?

I can believe that. I hit a large raccoon in June, dead center of the car took out the air conditioner condenser, radiator, and their supports, lower grill and most of the paint in the center of the bumper. Grand total for the damage $1800.
