Left front camber -.86
caster 2.00
toe -.03

right front camber -.45
caster 2.50
toe -.05

left rear camber -.67
toe 0.07

right rear camber -.78

everything looks ok, except the left front camber is a bit out according to the specs I have from my last alignment. The specs you should have that the shop I go to uses is

Front camber -0.8 / 0.8
Caster 0.6 / 2.6
toe -0.12 / 0.12

Rear camber -1.5 / 0.0
Toe 0.04 / 0.16

I am assuming you just go an alignment? If so, it should show you the specs on the sheet they gave you and usually numbers in red are angles out of spec and numbers in green are angles within spec.

Everything is in/close to spec, but generally get less camber on the drivers side. That should be fine though.

I think you will be ok. Some shops use a broader range of specs then what honda uses, so as long as it is within that shops specs, you should be ok. As long as on the sheet it shows the spec in green, you are ok. (that is if the sheet is like mine).
