Question about camber kits

I recently had accident with my car, My car slipt and hit the curve, After that I was not able to drive the car because wheel was out of angel. I took it to machanic and he replaced some parts, I think he said cross member and some other parts because they were bended very bad. Aftar that my car was going too much on the right hand side, that is where I hited the curve on front right tire. I took it to get it align but machanic was not able to get it align and told me to take it to frame shop to see if they can fix it. I took it to frame shop and they give me estimate of $500 + whole day. I was about to put new wheels in my car in couple of months. Now I am thinking should I install camber kit to fix this problem becuse alignment guy told me that he could not get my rear left wheel align either. I do think that my wheel probably bended some where but it does not look like it. I am thinking about putting the oem wheels back in and get it align again and see what the outcome is. Here is the info on alignment that I got it done couple of days ago. It is attach as jpg image. Also please advice me which camber kit to buy.

the camber kit can help only adjust the wheel straight.But it can do only +2 to -2 degree.
And it does not fix your car going too much on the right hand side.
My friend has the same case as you.He put the camber kit . It fix the angle but dose not fix going too much on the right hand side .
