Need a new fender, grille, bumper cover, bumper supports, headlamp assembly, blinker assembly, and probably a few other things. Damn.

Or you could have dodged it, maybe, idk. I've come pretty fucking close to hitting a moose. It was a huge fucking buck and would have handily totaled the Chevy/obliterated the Tempo.

You should get a brush guard. idk how much they help, but I've heard a good one could stand up to a deer.

I'm wondering if I hit a deer, how much damage would occur.  I do have this giant ass brush guard...

I would not have been able to dodge it. I didn't even have time to hit hte brakes. There was honestly 1/4 a sec from when i saw it airborn coming out of the woods until it was right infront of me when i hit it.
Im kinda partial on brush guards. I know they help if you are going slow, but depending on the mounting locations i heard they can do more damage than good. If i can find one that mounts to the frame I will probably get it if it's a reasonable price.

Now you can get a new tempo. I fell ya man, personally if it was me swerving off the road and possibly getting my self killed or hitting the deer I think the answer is pretty clear.

Yep, even if i had time to react, all i would do is it the brakes and try to move to the left lane. There is no point in risking losing control and end up wrapped around a tree to avoid a deer.

Don't veer for deer
