I decided to bring it to the shop because of lack of tools. The guy spent less than an hour for both side. The car being on the lift gave him much better access to that 10mm bolt. I know it was within spec before the kits and most people said it's not needed. But I can tell the car feels much more natural now. Before, it was sort of tweaky or jittery with -2.X camber and after a fast turn, when you straighten out your steering, it jerked a bit, not smooth. At hwy speed, it was tramlining quite a bit, depending on the surface.

I think my gas mileage will improve too (it dropped 2 after lowering, and even with lighter wheels/tires).
