Where I live the struggle is REAL! And half of them will put huge horns through the radiator. Problem is finding something that looks like it belongs on a Raptor.
Sometimes you have to riskit to get the biskit. I would rather put something that looks good with less coverage than something that looks hideous for that one chance of a deer strike. Maybe get some whistlers. Haha

Here, it’s not a chance, an if, it’s a when. I’ve been fortunate not to have any real damage. This morning the fog was something San Francisco can only imagine. Thankfully, I didn’t have OE brakes, so they were more bumps than hits. Wait! That might start another circle jerk argument about brakes! Never mind, the brakes were no benefit at all! Move on, there is nothing to see here...

:p

I’m in WV. We got our share of deer. If I hadn’t of changed lanes when I did, I would have hit a big buck at 70mph going to the airport back in Jan. I could see the carnage in the rear view. It’s been awhile since I’ve hit one

Slow down, bro! You're doing too much. lol Drive it for a few days to figure out what it NEEDS. Don't just throw parts at it.

Well I guess this was a lot less expensive and a lot easier than anything you guys have done and not really a big deal but I did it because it bugged me every time I popped the hood, and on to the other things you guys talked about my daughters live in payson az and they have more elk than deer so they wanted me to make them something for their trucks so here’s what they got

Have you ever seen what a deer does to a truck. I mean, you are not wrong until such impacts happen. Then you would have wished for a brinks armored car.
