rear suspension question

I hit a piece of concrete in the road. Messed up my rear suspension. Had it repaired at a bmw center and car drives like new. Been about a year and I noticed the rear passenger side fender is sitting about 5mm lower than the drivers side rear. Took it back to the dealer and they said there is 10mm of tolerance and everything looks normal. That being said, when I am on the highway, and go over a big dip in the road, the passenger rear is rubbing every so slightly. Even though the car drives perfectly, I want to get the rubbing issue and fender height fixed. When they fixed the suspension, they changed various parts that were bent but did not change the rear passenger spring.

Any thoughts on where to begin?order a new rear spring and start there? Something else?

Any thoughts would be appreciated. 2022 g80 comp rwd

You could always try another set of rear springs. Or you could get a KW HAs kit installed and use the adjusters to dial in your height perfect.
