Front End Vibration

Front End Vibration
About a month ago I started to notice a vibration in my front end.
-It's not constant, it comes and it goes.
-I can only feel it in the steering wheel, not sitting in the passenger seat.
-Bought new tires, not the problem, still vibrates.
I rubbed another car about 2 months ago in a parking lot going about 5mph, just the front fender, not bad enough that it didn't just buff out with a few scrathes in the plastic.
This wouldn't be enough to bend a rim or something else that would cause the vibration, would it?
I personally don't think so but who know what the M-techs are gonna say.
I'm just worried the stealership is gonna see the scratches and blame the issue on me when I rightfully know it's not my fault.

How high did you get the last time you jumped it? It could have bent something.
It only vibrates when you're driving? The vibration doesn't come up when you're stopped? My first thought was that your A/C is cycling on and you're feeling the vibration from it.
You bought new tires before or after the vibration started? That leans me towards a wheel that is not properly balanced.
Does it happen when turning, a certain speed, braking...
