Default GS-R Frame/Suspension Question

Here's the situation... after a bad crash (front passenger side impact), I had the car fixed at a body shop. When I went to pick up the car, I noticed that the wheel on the front passenger side was pertruding outside the fender by about 1/2". All of the other wheels looked fine...

The body shop took it to an alignment shop to look at it, and they said that it's because the frame is not straight and it was not fixed properly. The body shop, however, insists that the frame is perfectly straight, and that it's a suspension issue. They told me I need the following parts for that side:

Knuckle, Upper Control Arm, Lower Control Arm, Shock

The alignment shop is saying that those parts are irrelevant to the problem and wouldn't fix it.

If anyone has knowledge in this area, can you please tell me what would be the most likely cause of the problem - frame or suspension? Thanks.
