| Post subject: | KJ: 1, Deer: 0 |
I have a meeting with a claims adjuster on Thursday to determine the damage from a deer that attacked my passenger rear door and quarter panel. I was driving 35mph and didn't see the thing until it bounced off the jeep. Door and window functions properly. But you can see that the fixed glass is broken, the door has a some damage and the rear quarter is a little wrinkled. Any guesses as to what this might cost?

Just tell everybody it happened on the Rubicon when you were on two wheels going up the big sluice and pocket the insurance check

More than 1600 if they do it right I would say, don't think you can pop that back out, so new door 500, quarter panel for 1200/1300, glass 200 to 225 then paint and labor (calls for 18.5 hours just for the quarter panel.) I'll go for 3500/4000 at the very least LINE-X it all over
of course you can repair it cheaper ( 2 gallon of mud and some cardboard I could make it look like new ) just depends on what you and the insurance company can work out Good luck |

I just had some body work done to my right rear quarter panel next to the glass and new rear bumper, just short of $2,000 at the local Chrysler dealer. My damage was no where as severe as yours..... |

Okay, now that everyone has given you sympathy on the KJ... what about the deer?? When is the cookout?  No Blood?
Seriously, glad you are okay, KJ can be fixed. I see about 2-5 deer almost evey morning headed up my road... it's not even rut season either. |

That's the same piece of glass they broke when some $& broke into my KJ. That piece of glass alone, comes with the track, and is $455. |

Be interesting to see what they come with or if they want to do it cheap. Depends on the mileage but it maybe totaled ! I got dibs on the tires, rock rails
still guessing over 4 grand |

hahaha, totaled? That would be the saddest total Ive ever seen.
"Broke a window and got a dent, she's totaled" Heck, its a clunker, just set it on fire. 
Glad youre alright and it wasnt a head on.

OK, I guess 1200-1600 was a 1990 price. I think Rev. Mudd would do well on price-is-right. Hmmm, that could be a new lost game if someone worked near a body shop and could post photos, then the estimate.... |

oh, and I'm all for a few more weeks of hunting season That seems way, way light. My bet, $3500 range. These days, you can't walk into a body shop and say "Good Morning" for under a $1000. |

OK Mitch do I win or not? What did they say? Also I suppose you know that the deer has to hit you, not you hit the deer! Stupid insurance companies

quarter is repairable if the bodyshop knows what their doing... door will need replaced. i'd say mudd is close. |
