Raccoon damage!

[Ryans]

I hit a raccoon on the highway. Not just any raccoon, but a monster. He was huge and demonlike and took out my chin spoiler and the slots of the painted portion of the bumper it interlocks into.

Does anyone have a stock chin spoiler they aren't using or has anyone had any experience in buying the $99 ones off of eBay? From the pics they don't seem to have pre drilled holes for the plastic robots and screws and subsequently looks like they would be a headache to install. Is it worth going cheap?

First of all, I wasn't aware of a factory chin spoiler and my 2006 GT is a premium edition !

Yeah I'm not aware of a factory chin spoiler either unless you have a Parnelli Jones car.

He might have a GT500 or a 10-12 GT/CS which has some chin of sorts

Oh yeah, I feel your pain, but not as much pain as the raccoon felt (too soon?)
I had an unfortunate run in with a Labrador sized raccoon a few years ago. Destroyed my California Special bumper and went through the large front opening and damaged a number of cooling pieces. Luckily just weeks before my insurance advisor convinced me to change my comprehensive deductible to $100.
Good luck tracking down the new bumper. It gives you a good reason to have some fresh paint on the front end.

It would help if the OP would be more specific by posting what he actually has

Pics would also help

Nope an Alaskan sunset.

Of course the car
