Help--I hit coyote in my turbo--PICS
I was cruising along Carmel Valley Road and this damn coyote jumps out from the left and runs straight at me. He ran toward me at about a 45 degree angle. I was moving about 65mph.

the front facia obviously needs replacement. Can anyone tell if I'm going to have to replace the quarter panel or can it be fixed?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The wheel pic shows the hair that caught between the wheel and tire.

Here's a pic of the coyote I took w/ my camera phone:

I would think the fender is fixable...doesn't look all that bad. Glad you're okay.

BLUBYOU is infamous around these parts
Hunting Coyotes with a Porsche is much too expensive. You really should get a gun.

looks fixable but only fix it if they don't need to repaint it. otherwise a new fender is pretty cheap, less than 400 bucks i remember(might be my cost that i remember).

sorry to see that.

DT -- Glad to see that you're OK. Wow! Hair caught between the wheel and tire, that's just crazy. I'm sure your car will look great after it's fixed. Any chance the coyote had liability insurance?
