Default Caster question on ek

So I was looking at it seems like my caster was a little off, so I went and had an alignment. Found out the driver side has negative 0.3 caster. It doesn't pull or feel weird when driving should I replace anything or just keep an eye on it?

I would find the bent parts. If the wheel is pointed straight forwards it looks like it is pushed towards the rear of the car in that picture.

My EK caster was close to zero after hitting a curb head on in a dark parking lot. Subframe was bent, arms and knuckles were not. Replaced subframe and caster was on spec again.
