I had the cruise set at 72 and squared up on the doe, then at the last second she went to turn back and her head fit through the bars in the middle. When I pulled over to check damage her head was stuck in the grill with no body attached. No leaks, so I put on about 200 miles. I am just glad the heaters on the trailer did not come loose.

Wow, that would have done some damage without the bumper guard.

I figure the whole front clip would have been a total loss without the TDK bumper.

The deer might have eaten it. After all, its head was stuck there.

I had adjusted the drivers side wiper so it would go to the edge of the windshield.

Man you got lucky! The bumper saved your front end.
My wife a few years back had a deer ram the side of her truck. Caused $3,000 worth of damage.

I finally fixed the van today. Just so you know a B&M #70274 cooler is a great fit.
