Just got my car back from the body shop, it drives straight runs smooth looks good, but when I turn left I have this low hum/growl on the right side what could this be? a wheel bearing?

more than likely it is your wheel bearing. To check it out, raise your right front end, grab the wheel at the 3 and 9 o'clock position or 12 and 6 o'clock postion and see if there is any play when you try to rock it back and forth.
