Question to everyone

ok this what happened i hiy a curve by mistake and i messed up my car. After this incident the car was limping up and down. I was wondering if anybody knows what is messed up. I've had my friends tell me it the axel, the sway bar, but all i know is that i can't even drive it without the car bouncing up and down. I would apprieciate any comments or suggestion that any one may have.

same thing happened to me....

I hit so hard i might have dislodged a motor mount. But ofcourse i was wrong..

It came to be the Lower Arm brace... it's what supports everything from your strut to the whole wheel assembly.

Mine bent so much, that my wheel was stuck onto the wheel well...
