Default Will Spring Spacers Affect Alignment ?

I bought my S2000 about 2 months ago and it was pulling to the right. I took it right away to an alignment shop.

After that while reading some threads on this forum I went to check if there are any spring spacers left and sure enough I found one on the left front spring.

Since the alignment was done with that spacer on would the alignment be off now that I took the spacer out ? Should I take it to an alignment shop again ?

The car still pulls slightly to the right but it might just be the uneven tire wear from the miles it was driven with the wrong alignment.

Thanks in advance.

The dealership where I did the alignment was kind enough to redo it for free. And yes, it was off ;-) ...
