if you bent the car, which is not likely, you would see it in the seams along the doors, hood etc.
The ride height is mostly from the springs but as the suspension would hit max travel before over compressing the springs, likely that is not an issue. If the shocks/struts got damaged, you would notice that the car bounces more over bumps vs proper damping over bumps.
The most likely damage would be movement of the suspension parts bending the suspension back a little but if that happened, you would notice major handling differences.
When you hit bumps at speed, the tire absorbs the bulk of it, then followed by upward suspension travel to the point where the suspension hits the travel limit rubber stops. In extreme cases, the tire would probably blow first followed by bending of suspension parts and if extreme, bending of the car body. If your steering wheel was not jolted out of your hands and if you did not hear very loud bangs, there is a good chance nothing got damaged.
