These were in an issue of Sema Magazine. I according to the summary in the magazine they're supposed to be pretty good, although I haven't tried it myself yet.

hey thanks everyone for your help so far, got a couple of questions. has anyone tried that ebay kit? does L-tuned specialize in over-priced parts? does anyone have a direct link to the camber kit in auto fashion (I wasn't born in the U.S. but I don't speak Japanese/ Chinese. also not all the kits I've seen adjust the upper control arm some go on the lower one, i think, is there a benefit of one vs. the other?

l-tuned is run by a dealer, so the costs are always going to be high, but their customer service, quality of parts, and availability of rare/difficult to obtain parts is phenomenal.

the upper control arm is where you'll get the majority of your correction from, its only logical as your camber is mainly the top of your wheel turning in (though also the bottom of the wheel comes out, it's easier to adjust the upper arm.

i personally wouldn't trust ebay for a critical part like the upper arms, but your decision.

SPC is not an ebay brand. They just happen to appear on ebay. I'm sure you can find it at some other online retailer. SPC has been around long before ebay was created, in fact they are some of the leading brands for suspension parts since the early 70s.

Correct. SPC has been around for a while. I actually bought that eBay kit and will be installing it as soon as my rims arrive (hopefully in the next few weeks). The appear to be pretty good quality.
