I'm glad I fitted some mesh to my car! The only damage was to 4 out of 6 cable ties holding the mesh in place.



If you can guess the speed of impact, the geographic location I hit it, and what it had for it's last meal, you win a prize !!

That poor little creature lost its life through no fault of its own, it had as much right to inhabit this Earth as you or I. With respect,dismissing its death in the way you have is just a bit sad?

I reckon your car was parked up at your house and was obviously stationary, the bird was looking for a quiet place to sleep and its last meal was mesh

Before, I start getting death threats from Rolf Harris and Co, I should make it clear that I did not staple above bird to the road to enable me to mash it. I was driving along, below the speed limit when it decided to fly into me !

My post was mainly to explain why fitting mesh may save radiator/air-con radiator damage.

I'm not some Holy,do-gooder,vegan I just like animals!

HKSubaru

HKSubaru

lokos like the last meal it had was itself! I am a animal lover but will let you off as you were going slow.

P.s (animal lover meaning, love all types of animals in non-sexual way!)

Hmm i prolly would have posted what happened but not the pic...i hate it when animals get killed wether its an accident or not. I had the same thing happen to me but instead of the bottom grille this bird decided to fly into my bloody intercooler scoop. I too was only doing 60ish on a dual carriageway. Sad when things like that happen i think!

Brun

It obviously didn't observe the Green Cross Code. Of course it was the birds fault!

I'm always hitting peasants when I'm out driving my car

They leave nasty marks on my bonnet what with the zips in their kappa shell suits and gold hoopla earings!

shame it wasnt a cat

or a fox... (been there, done that and the t-shirt doesn't fit )

Ian - did you have to do any drilling to tiewrap the mesh in? Is it a std wrx as I've got some kind of sensor / connection just to the RHS of the centre post whick sticks proud a bit and might make it awkward getting mesh in - same on yours?
