Some goo gone would help get that glue off, but may take the wax with it as well. As far as the lopsided thing, if you aernt running coilovers, that's common. It's the trademark Honda gangsta lean. The drivers side sits lower on all of them.

If your ride height was level before you jacked up your car check and see if your springs are properly seated on there perches and in the pillow mounts (on the side thats higher of course).

Probably the only time this would happen is if you have after market springs/suspension or cut springs.
