It's been fixed!
This thread is from last month and today I posted pics of the repair work. Somehow all the new posts are coming here.
We all have deer stories but thankfully mine is history (and yes, that is blood on the door :-(. Local body shop did a great job as you can see, negotiated well with insurance, detailed the car and everything. In the end it was about $1K out of my pocket for deductible ($500) and repainting the hood and LF fender at my request (lots of paint chips). If I had known I was going to get a new bumper in the process I would have asked for NISMO with a Gialla grill :-) All is well, my like-new G is comfortably in the garage, waiting for spring. Thanks for keeping the old thread alive (unlike the deer I'm afraid), but this is the current thread:

I had a friend hit a horse a while back near our house... He actually succeded in going after the owner of the horse to pay for the damages
Apparently in this state, failure to keep your animals properly secured is a punishable offense. I don't know if I would have the heart to ask the owners to pay for it if I killed their horse.
I've heard of people around here going after dog owners too when they get run over... Apparently in this city, it's illegal to have your dogs running around without a leash unless they are in a designated doggy area . (tho nobody seems to obey it)
