I def like that goat. I am thinking about getting one build or building one.

I got $1200 from the insurance. I am going to order a headlight/corner night set of ebay. There are the lower valence on there for like $15 if I decide to do that and about 120 to get the dents mostly taken out. And then if I decide to get a new bug guard.

1200 bucks is an armoured bumper and a new headlight. Thank the deer for upgrading your rig.

back when I had my jeep cherokee and lived in the country i was headed to school one early mornin and a big doe ran out in front of me. I swerved and its head hit my right fender, the body swung, and dented my whole passenger side except for the rear panel. I slammed on my breaks and looked over my shoulder only to see it get up and run off. Freaked me out so bad haha. I hope for it to never happen again

once i straightend out the bumper and got a turn signal lens and marker lens, you couldn't even tell i hit anything. i really miss that truck.

I really wanted to take it home and take her meat but it was midnight and i didn't feel like calling to see if i could.

That sucks man... I hit an 8 point buck in my brother's '88 ford, and all it did was bend the fender a bit. I haven't hit anything in my Yota yet.

That's what happened to me. It was during the rut, doe came full bore down hill to my left and hit my driver's window with her head. Good old Toyota glass held and then her rear hit the rear door and fender. $3000 in damages. Luckily my insurance company gives a free pass on deer hits and she left hair sticking out all kinds of places. She kept going so I couldn't get her tag number.

Scared the living s*** out of me when I saw that face plastered to my glass six inches from my head.

Don't think you will be able to buy that out of the box. It looks to me like a TJM 17 bumper then he's custom welded a brush guard and light guard bars for it.

actually it wasn't all that big. it was a texas white tail doe.It's back was the same height as my hood and It only weighed probably 150-200 pounds. I just hit it going 65 MPH without even hesitating because it happened so fast. It darted from the shoulder into me when i was only like 3 or 4 feet away from it. Its head was almost at the driver's side headlight, the shoulder was right at my liscense plate and the hind quarters were right at the corner of the bumper and passenger fender. It felt like hitting a soft brick wall and as soon as i hit it, it got knocked down on the ground and i slide on it with my front tires for probably 20 secondsg before i slowed down enough to get traction with my wheels to turn and get off of it. Some how there wasn't any blood though. it was definetly dead though lol.

Yep...it started off as a TJM T17 ($300 used), I welded on my factory brush guard and other reinforcements. Please don't anyone ask me to make another one, way too much work.
