Heres the facts:
after accident on passenger side, when i press unlock the car will flash lights and beep twice like normal. when i press lock, the red alarm light does not come on in the inside, the lights do not flash, and the car will not beep one time; which its supposed to.
And question:
does anyone know how to fix this and what the problem could be with the factory alarm?

I had a response (or lack of) like yours from the security system when I had a power lock go out. Turns out it'll only beep when it detects all of the doors have locked. I assume your power locks all work, so I would have to say you've got trouble with the detection of wether or not a lock is locked. Your passenger side accident makes me want to think you've got a damaged wire, or perhaps the sensor in the latch assembly has gone bad. Check out the electrical manual sticked in this forum for more information on finding the exact problem.

Just curious? Why ask if a shop is going to fix it anyways?
