As I installed my SPC rear camber kit...

Me and my friend were doing it and I lost the instructions as we put them on. We basically adjusted the lower arm enough so that when the wheels sat on the ground, it wasn't cambering anymore, it was straight. THEN when I get a chance to look at the instructions, it said that the camber kit was only supposed to be adjusted to the length of the stock camber kit.

I don't understand... do I have to re-do it? And should I pay to get the wheels re-aligned?

i'm guessing you didnt get an alignment after you lowered your car since you just installed the camber kit... i would think just as long as it looks straight then its fine.. having a little negative camber isnt bad tho, around -.5 degrees. i think thats how our car comes stock. if you do decide to get an alignment, they probably wont even touch the camber unless if you tell them to cause its probably going to be still within spec which is like -1 to +1 degrees.

Thanks a lot! Nah, I haven't gotten an alignment yet because I had to slightly adjust my coilovers in the rear.
