Same happened to me about 6 months ago!

Had mine repaired at VW, bonnet wasn't damaged but had that Resprayed as well as blending in the wings and think total cost was £1,500, although I put through insurance so just paid the excess and for the bonnet which was about £500.

I just took it as a positive as got rid of all the stone chips and a nice front end re-spray....although the deer didn't see it that way!

yes thats the only plus is get rid of those stone chips, but have to say these insurance companies love to take your money but want your car to go to the cheapest they can find to fix them .

been there - did that - with a Mk2 Polo & a Mk2 Golf & a Fabia VRS! Not had much luck up here. Hit the one on the Fabia at motorway speed - didnt even bother to stop. Just got home and looked at it - insurance co wanted to write it off. So I told them to forget it - and repaired it myself - £1500 total bill!
