YouTube is a pretty bad place to put a video that you don't want to see.
You can put a video up private so no one can search it unless the link is shared.

It's not public (unlisted), but I see where you're coming from.

So it turns out I did lower my deductible, and the adjuster said rates don't typically go up on deer hits. Total is going to be a little over $2400, car goes in next Tuesday and its going to take a week to fix it.
He found another pair of dents I didn't even notice across the rear door and fender. I guess the deer bounced. He's also going to completely replace the mirror for me and do the A pillar the full way instead of pdr.
With only paying $500 and getting a full new drivers side and my rates not going up, I think it makes sense to use insurance here. Only downside I see at first glance is 3 weeks before the car is back, and its getting cold... I might not get it back in time to have fun with it in the boost weather.

Sounds like a good outcome. Its amazing the slightest of dents the bodywork guys can detect. One of my cars got rear ended and it blew my mind what miniscule ripples and such they pointed out on the quarter panels that I would have never detected
As long as they do a good job I'm happy with it. And the dent really is hard to see, he only noticed it because it makes a sharp line in the shop light reflection.

Hopefully they blend the new paint in well. Don't want the car looking like kt belongs to Two Face=P
Its a dark color, should be fairly easy to blend.

Do the A pillar the full way? You mean with body filler?

No, the full way silly!
That’s the worst thing I’ve ever seen

Uh, I guess so? He said the standard way, not PDR. I assumed they take the panel off and pop it out, then refinish. I can check what he wrote up on the estimate
-
Lol the A pillar isn't a panel, it's part of the car. It can't simply be unbolted.
Like Snap said, take some before pictures so you have something to show buyers who question the accident on CarFax. This way you have evidence that it was a minor deer hit, not a major accident.
Also, my insurance agent said my rates wouldn't go up either... liars. Good luck!

What @suspenceful said^
Your agent wont tell you about your rates until its too late. If they told everyone they would be affected do you think they would get half the claims they get? I would be cautious about it honestly, make sure you read the fine print.

Day 5 of repairs, its the weekend and I wanted to go for a drive. Remembered I don't have my car, took the Honda instead. When I got home I decided to park it like a BMW to amuse myself.
Expecting the car back this Wednesday or Thursday.

Yeah, when my last E90 broke during the River Valley Road Rally we picked this up as a reliable daily, which then opened up the world of N54 problems to me without worrying about being without a car. I don't drive to work, but in a way I have the boring ol Honda to thank for the 335.
Also got some new plates for the car today, you also get a cat to look at.
