Fantastic Chris. Get under the car and have a look at what you broke. Or if you can't tell, post a DECENT picture and we'll point it out. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

You will most likely always bend the panhard rod bracket that attaches to your chassis. A mate did this once (gutter slapping) we heated it up and roughly bent it back just to stop wheels rubbing, then it had to be put on a rack and pulled back correctly.

Could be bent control arms too. You won't really know until you have a good look at what isn't where it used to be.
