Yup, it was intact until it hit the ground, and then it only deformed:
The airframe in front of the motor (you can see it as slightly shinier because we polished it) mushroomed out the motor case, and then the fincan slid down and bent over the mushroomed section. The fins did stay on (though they bent too).
That was pretty awesome...
