accident question.

my dumbass neighbor was coming out of his driveway front first really fast and tboned my passenger side.
it messed up my fender, bumper, and wheel.

im not too worried about the fender and bumper, the thing is that my wheel has negative camber now. well i think it does.. it looks like this \ . do i have to replace my axel? i cant even take out 3 of the lug nuts.

prccivic is an unknown quantity at this point
is the axel bent, or is the control arm just really tweaked?

i would check the rear control arm and the rear camber arm first...
if you can't take out your rim, your rim might be bent...

oh haha, i keep thinking it was the rear.
the damage doesn't look that bad, probably dont' have to replace your axle.
