recently fixed my car after an accident, got it done ghetto style for 750 bucks, so no new parts were used, just bent back into place. it was a front end accident, so after it was fixed i took it for an alignment. the alignment fixed the shimmey i had at 55+ but the car pulls to the right more than it should. i took it back and they redid it, and said they road tested it, but its still not that much better, if at all. what could be causing it? the body shop guy i originally got a quote from for 5k+ said there was no frame damage, the brakes arent dragging, tire pressure is good, what else could it be?

bents arms, frame is bent, subframe bent, steering rack could be messed up i suppose, tons of things. accidents are mean to cars. :(
lets be rational first...is the steering wheel straight when it pulls? that could be bad...does it yank when it pulls? lets think of really simple things you may have over looked...
tire pressure...
visually inspect ride heights on either side...
inspect cambers and such from a flat angle...
anythign look wrong?
put it up on jack stands and inspect from underneath
