that is correct. to take off the arms in the rear there is 3 bolts that holds the camber arm. so take off thoes 3 bolts put the camber arm on. bolt the 3 bolts back on, take it to go get aligned and bam your done.

Tip: Get an alignment right after installation.

Yes. There's really no possible way to mess up your car that badly by just installing a camber kit.
