That's crazy. So glad to hear that you are okay. Not many people hit a moose and live to tell about it.

Hey thanks guys.. Ya i have no idea how we got away with so little damage and being able to walk away.. I did a pretty good job at trying to miss it. Apprently if you drive off the road the insurance doesnt cover the accident.. Ill try 2 get some pictures up today..

^ & with the exchange rate right now, mod prices are great
shipping of some body parts can be a pain though. (bulky)

Matdaddy as the others said you are sooooo lucky to come out of this, those things can be huge.

What area of Canada did this happen on ?

I know im a pretty tall guy so i dont have much head room so i dont even want to think what could have happen..

So do any of you know any nice body kits. The OEM parts are about the same price so i might as well change the look of my car
