Exclamation 2000 civic alignment (specs posted)

Hello, I have a 2000 Honda Coupe EX. I jumped a curb and side swiped a curb. My rear left lower control arm was bent, and I replaced it. The rear left subfame is also semi-ripped where the screw hole for the LCA screws goes. I temporarily fixed it with jb-weld but am going to need to replace the entire left subframe. Currently, my vehicle pulls to the left. and when I drive straight my vehicle steering wheel is exactly positioned like this to keep the car driving straight.



Here is my alignment specs.



I am going to replace both front lower control arms, will this help with my alignment (caster)?

Thank you.

no, not new arms, old arms. hopefully the two lca will fix my steering problem and there will not be an issue with my front subframe.
