Default Stolen and recovered

Hello all.

Here's what happened:
1. car was stolen on Superbowl Sunday night
2. @$$ thief wrecked it and abandoned it on the street
3. just got it back yesterday after paying tow and storage fees
4. it drives but it puts toward the right

Damages are mainly on the front of driver side, bent bumper and side fender, busted signal light and sidemarker light/housing.
During braking, a small grinding noise comes from the damaged side of the wheel...I'm suspecting that it's coming from the brake rotor.
I haven't got a chance to get underneath....The jack is at my friend's place.

Any one has ideas what I am dealing with, such as what need to be looked at??
Also, I'm located in NYC; any good decent suspension shops in Queens?

Thanks

Jack

you really just have to get under there and see if anythings bent. If you haven't messed with it before take it somewhere. I probably would, I can install most stuff, btu that would be above me mechanically.

Thanks guys for the quick replies.
As mentioned, shopping for a reliable shop in Queens area.
The crx has never visited a shop for repair since I owned it 8 years with the exceptions to getting tires on it.
