Hi chaps and chappettes

I unfortunately have had a slight run-in with a kerb at a 'moderate' speed which has caused some damage to my alloys and has affected the drive of the car. I am taking it to Eurospec 1st thing tomorrow morning and am fearing the worst considering the gap between the back of the wheel and the arch is about 2" as opposed to nearly 6" on the other side.
Someone mentioned that the wishbone could be bent, is this expensive to repair? I guess I will find out soon enough but just trying to prepare myself for some bad news as a result of a moment of stupidity.

BTW when it drives it pulls to the left though doesn't change under braking.

I guess, silver lining and all that jazz I could take this opportunity to uprate the suspension Any ideas for mods???

Six inch gap on the other side sounds a lot. Is the front of the other wheel inside the front end of the wheel arch?

The 6" gap is the normal width, I've not changed the std wheels (16") so usually quite a bit of clearance all round the wheel. Now the o/s wheel is not sitting centrally in the arch (pushed back)
Mark @ Eurospec has taken a look and thinks it could just be a bent lower arm so am hoping to have it booked in sometime this week.

Still feel nauseous when I think about it
