Default Buggered Type R suspension?

Had a little incident pulling out of a junction,it was damp and i put my foot down (not too aggresively but the boost came on) and i ended up smacking the front then the rear passenger side ,kerbed the crap out of my alloys but more importantly what may i have done to my suspension


Passenger rear



Drivers rear



Drivers front



Passenger front



I stopped at a junction where a driver behind beeped me and said my rear wheels were wobbling,i've jacked the car up to check both wheels and they are on the hubs tightly and i couldn't get them to move (although different situation to them actually rotating)

What damage have i done and could i have done (i know it's hard to diagnose these problems over the net) taking it to my local guys tomorrow.

And is this going to be an expensive lesson?

Thankfully nothing wrong except the geometry was a bit out

2 alloys written off though

A mate did similar.

To date we have changed;

Front hub
Rear hub
Rear latteral arms
Front wishbone
Steering Rack
Alloys
Front struts
Rear struts

It can get expensive!!!!
