Default I finally got another S2000!

Long story short, I drove 6 hours to Morehead City, NC pick up an amazing car. 1 owner, low mileage, and best of all no accidents. Then 5 minutes from home a buck the size of a friggin horse runs out into the road and takes out some anger on the left side of my car. . Pics are below, but does anybody have a recommendation for a good body shop in NOVA?

Edit: any reviews are helpful and appreciated, good or bad.

Thanks,

David

Awww man, I *know* how disappointed you have to be. Those 'picked-up-my-new-S2000' pictures look GREAT! And the 'buck-smashers'...not so great . I hit a doe earlier this fall myself. Luckily the damage was more limited and I straightened the majority of it out myself. But you definitely need a body shop's professional services. FWIW, be sure they properly inspect the driver's side headlamp assembly as well. Although, from the pics, it looks cosmetically sound, I feel confident that the upper-outer mount point (if no others) has likely been compromised .

Get 'er back in shape mucho-pronto! Definitely a pretty, stock S2000!

- Dave

Thanks, Dave. I am 99% sure the headlight is broke. It was pointing at the sky driving it home. I am a little disappointed, but stuff happens and that's what insurance is for. Just looking forward to getting it fixed and back on the road.

Sorry to read this

Now if it's just the fender, that is not to hard to replace by yourself.

That looks like a really beautiful and unmolested (other than by the deer) S2K. Good luck!!
