some tit threw flower over the car, and i couldnt see out the window and smashed over a kerb high crossing island at 30mph front and back drivers wheels, kerbed the rim and slight buckle in 1 wheel (guy aggreed to pay since i just had them redone, so they are getting sorted!) the wing was sticking out and squint so i loosend that and straitend it. the arch was off, so i fixed that. the trackings miles out thats getting done today hopefully.
now... what im lost with is, looking at the suspension and strut its all fine. but the cars sitting about an inch lower at that side than before now! looks sexy tho but still... not surewhat could cause this, bushes maybe? the handling is a bit dodgy due to the tracking so its hard to tell aswell, wheels has to sit 90 deg to the right and car pulls to the left, but, not sure if this is the tracking or a sus problem, when i go to put it in full lock to the right when your about half a turn away from the it wheel shoots round and locks into full lock, as if im sitting on a big slope or sumit, its wierd... help
.. also i have a hissing sort of noise form the engine, which i thought was the inner arch rubbing off the tyre but it does it when i rev aswell.. comes from driver front wheel sort of area inside the car but opening the bonnet i cant hear it. think its the exhaust, my CAT was fucked and the shock may have fucked it more, also nocked the hear shield off the cat. may just be ngine noise as it needs an oil change, not had one in at least 20k lol

Dave anychance was this one of your so called mates that were flinging eggs at your car up retail 
Dont replace the Cat Heatshield it will only comne loose again and annoy you..
hissing sound like airs escaping from somewhere if your cat was fucked it was mroe than likely coming from that..
AND GET A SERVICE DONE!!!!
