    My car makes a scraping sound when it turns a sharp left.

    You may have loosened a fender liner or filler piece. Turn the wheel all the way the other way and take a look inside the fender well.

    You could have damaged a ball joint, tie rod or messed up the bearings or CV joint.
    At any rate, if you did do damage it needs fixed soon.
