Icon6 Car Sitting Lower on One Side?

Kind of a wierd question...

I have an s2000 that was recently involved in an accident and the passenger side slammed into a concrete wall very, very hard. Surpisingly, very little cosmetic damage resulted. Obviously, driving issues ensued (pulled to the right drastically, wheel was off center by about 60 degrees, etc.), so I took it to get aligned. They said it was the worst alignment they ever did, but said it didn't appear that anything was bent.

After the event, I've noticed the car sits lower on the passenger side than the driver side and it appears that the front right wheel isn't perfectly straight when the steering wheel and the left front tire are. It will still drive pretty well on the highway and such, but very gradually begins to pull to the right.

I'm wondering what could be the problem and the best place to take the car to get the front right wheel straightened out (what controls that?) and to level out the passenger side to match the driver side. The suspension is stock. Thanks in advance for any advice...
