Suspension is bent somewhere. Camber arm i suspect.
Take it to a mechanic for diagnosis.

the op seems to be aware enough that he placed two of them on there..

Brought it to the shop and they said I have to get the trailing arm and lateral link replaced. They said they'd charge $550 for it. Is that a fair deal?

LOL! That damage screams drift gone wrong. If you were trying that on public roads, which I'm assuming you were since you hit a curb, that's called karma.
