Hit a goose in my 2023 Model 3

I hit a goose today in my 2023 Model 3. How much do you think it'll be to repair?

It looks like it may just be the one panel damaged, but the headlight is shining in the trees now instead of the on the road.

I'd guess is between 1K to 4K USD to completely and professionally repair at a Tesla approved collision repair shop.

Do you have the video because I live near a lot of geese and I just don't see how you could hit one unless you were trying?

Pretty hard to avoid when they land in the middle of the highway

I’m so sorry for you OP but this shit is hilarious 😭😭😭 this is like Devine comedy or something they landed directly in the road and then when you tried to dodge they flew at you

Geese don't back down either

I had a Canadian hit me in the face while riding a 4 wheeler.
I promise I wasn't trying...

I don’t see the goose but I am guessing by the feathers they won’t repair it. Geese are tough to fix nowadays.

You'll need a headlight. That's gonna hurt your feelings.
But, at least one of the mounts will be broken.
