Front vibration through steering

So, several weeks ago I hit some debris on the highway on a rainy night (still shocked I didn't see whatever it is, but hey) that was significant enough to crack the bumper and take a chunk out of the left front wheel. So, as I was kinda looking for new wheels anyway, we wound up with a set of BBS RSIIs now. Next, we replaced the lower control arm and outer tie rod, since they had some play in them, and installed the full RoW M030 suspension. New Contisport 3's went on with the wheels.

Now, after all that, I STILL have a slight vibration that can only be felt through the steering that comes in between about 65-75 and then returns after about 85, varying in severity depending upon road speed.

Anybody have any insight as to what to look for next? This is driving me nuts! One would think the alignment rack would catch anything bent or out of spec, but the #s are perfect, so apparently not

Input much appreciated.
