Default Minor Road Accident

I was driving about 80mph and suddenly I see this rabbit right in front of me. There were 2 walls on each side of the road so there was no way to go around it. My thoughts at the moment were: "If I hit teh brakes I might ram into the sidewall, LS is huge so it can take a bunny and not go into any drifts, if I hit him at low speed hes gonna live and suffer, utherane is flexible so I will not damage any plastic." I mean the little fella is going to die anyway so I accelerate a little more and BAM! Ok, I know that Utherane body kits are unbrakable but I forgot that I have a pretty cool lower grill in my bumper also. The grill is no more. I kinda feel sorry for teh bunny, but it is not supposed to be on a high-speed road anyway. I need to wash my car from all the blood everywhere but overall the damage is very minor.

The plan is to make a custom lower grill (pretty easy and stylish), paint it black and paint the upper grill black also. Basically the only other color on the car is going to be chrome (rims and window trim). I am getting it repainted after Christmas.

You had any similar accidents?
