Trouble after accident.

So about two months ago I got into an accident in my G and it has been in the shop ever since. Here is a before picture of the G.


The accident.


After.




They said that all they replaced were stock parts and that all the aftermarket parts were not damaged. I can see that the Tein lowering springs are still their but why is the ride height so high.

There was also a weird noise coming from the front left so it is in the shop again and they are suppose to fix all the problems I found but I just thought I would ask what could cause the height issue if they really just replaced what they said they did. I did not lower it, the previous owner did so I do not know what extra parts were on it. They did say that the springs and the upper control arms were after market.

Thanks,
TJ

No, I was making a left hand turn at about 65mph like a dumbass. In the background you can sorta see the road I was on before I went over the sidewalk, the grass and then the huge bush I am currently sitting on top of. That didnt answer my question.

Check if any sticks or twigs from the bush are interfering with the springs
