you really should not mess them up because I am sure they are meant to take a beating. after all they are suspension parts.

if you messed up anything, it's probably NOT your coilovers. Take it somewhere and have them check your steering, alignment, ans suspension components.

when you got the alignment, did you tell them that you recently drove into a curb? if you told them that they probably would have looked more carefully

omni coils are amazing pieces of utility. They are drop tested to check deliverence. I doubt they were hurt, though they were prolly rattled nicely. HOWEVER, if you car feels like it's not sitting right, the tire seems out of place in the well, or something like that, check alignment and your lower control arms. Honda's make lighter control arms that don't take as much of a beating because they are expecting economy drivers.
