Sweet. Thanks.

What I ultimately want is just a little more camber up front (than stock), less understeer.
So after lowering, the front camber doesn't change at all? Or does it maybe add just a little camber. Because if thats the case, then I'm good.

If it doesn't change, and I want to adjust it I would need the bolts right? Any opinions on the bolts?

The SPC rear camber arm install is similar and with the right amount of patience, it is relatively simple.
