At least I think that's what it was. Headed to St Louis last night I plowed an animal of some sort at 85mph. Luckily it only popped the drivers corner light out of the bumper, and knocked the fender liner loose. Could had been much worse...

Question is, the entire corner light assembly pooped out. I can't figure out how to get it back in place. It looks like the assembly comes apart and is "sandwiched" into the front bumper...

Any help is appreciated.

 

Drop the bumper....start the reassembly and determine what clamps are broken.

 

post pictures sir

 

Mmmmmmm, coyote.

 

You are one sick man KC.....

 

Oh snap! Crazy pic, KC.

 

... ... ... ...PWNED

 

I think I just threw up looking at that picture.

 

Needs fender liner and the bottom piece under driving light. It looks like the corner light assembly comes apart but I can't figure out how. I'm
outta town with the car so I have no tools to really mess with it. I have the underside valence piece zip tied in place till I get home. Sucks ***.

 

Lol i laughed @ the thread title.. what are the odds that someone hits a COYOTE!!!!

& KC your crazy lol

 

Welp, got it home and got the corner light assembly back in.

Need a bumper cover, left side fender liner, and a bunch of those plastic push clips.

Where is the best place to find OEM stuff?

 

At least it wasn't a deer.

 

how the hell did they manage to do that?!
damn u cant even tell its a deer. u could of said its a f***ing lion and i would of believed it

 

the bmw was prolly going 130 for the deer just get lodged in there like that, pretty neat

 

damn dude sucks -_-

 

Story is that it was a small deer and was hit at 140 mph. I can't imagine trying to clean that mess up.

 

how would you ins. appraise that? lol

 

How does that work, a deer imbedded in a BMW?

 

x2 thats dope...and LOL @ the first animal kill pic. to the OP, damage doesnt seem to significant, but enough i know to drive you crazy

 

My wife saw these pics and barfed.

 

You're right lol. It's not bad, but I picked up a brand new bumper cover today as well as a new fender liner.

Coulda been a lot worse and glad I am getting off with just these simple fixes....

btw hitting an animal at 85mph will scare the **** out of you lol

 

That BMW picture can't be real.

 

Great. I just ordered Chinese for dinner and now I saw these pics. I'm not hungry anymore.

 

Why? There aren't any cat pictures. My brother came down over the weekend and ran over a deer. A car a lane over from him hit it and sent it sliding across the road in front of him. He pulled over a mile later at a rest stop, got out, and said it spelled like someone was grilling a steak. No real damage but it spiderwebbed the paint on the front bumper and tore a plastic airdam off under the car.

To the OP: Did you get the new bumper cover at a dealership? If so would you mind telling me what it cost? Mine has some fairly deep scratches in it and I'm considering getting it painted or just replacing it with a new one.

 

I got a "new aftermarket." Built to OEM specs, but its not an actual Nissan brand bumper. I paid $100 for it brand new shipped from a local auto parts distributor. Couldn't afford to chuck over the $425 for the oem unit. This will be just fine....although I would had of course wanted to stick with oem equipment.

 

That BMW converted from gasoline to venison!

 

wow! pics are disturbing lol especially that BMW
