Well everyone, I havent really posted here much and got here a month or so ago and have used quite a bit of valuable resources from here but unless this can be fixed, I'm going to need another S13 to fit in here. Last night on my way from downtown I hit a full grown doe(as in deer) at 55-60 with my S13. Trashed it, absolutley trashed the windsheild/roofline. The rad support is fine, bent drivers side fender, hood, a mangled drivers side flip up light and an early retired bomex front end. I'll include some pics, be honest, can I fix it? I put 15,000 into this car and needed nothing but an SR20(which was on its way this summer) So, is this the tragic end to my S13?

sorry to hear it man.
that roof is trashed. Would be way more to fix it than to just get a new shell. S13 shells are pretty easy to come by too. good luck.
