I received my custom camber kit today. Made by a shop on a set of used front upper control arms. Allows a few degrees of negative camber at the ride height I presently have -- looks similar to the Skunk2 design.

I'm charging a set of batteries as I type to take a few pics. Stay tuned.....
Hurry up, post the pictures!!! How much was it?

It was $320 total. Including the $50/side to buy used upper control arms. Not too bad considering this is a one-off pair.

Finally pics...

Don't argue with stupid people, they will bring you to their level and beat you with experience.

I'm not sure yet, but I should be able to get at least -3 degrees of negative at my current ride height (dropped 1.5").

Like I said on Honda Tech, I "think" they may come in contact w/ the fender wells..

I have had good luck w/ turning the specialty products anchor bolt kit around backwards, but have to do some simple grinding to the UCAs..

3g's come with some limited camber correction. I dremeled out the arms to get a bit more camber. Didn't net much though. And for some mysterious reason I have much more camber on the drivers side than on the passenger side (like ~1.0 degrees!). The cars never been in a wreck, and the rideheight is the same on both sides. Such mystery! Still handles well though. And I don't notice much difference in tire wear.

and i'm spent.
