They should have given you more - camber on the front right. There is a hold down screw on top, remove it. Then loosen the 3 top strut screws and move the top of the strut towards the engine. The holes are slotted.Easier if you raise car to get weight off tire.

On the right rear they gave you more - camber, you want less in rear.
Maybe the left wouldn't come in anymore, so they evened it up.

Hope that helps. You could think about buying lower rear control arms and taking more of the negitive camber out of the rear.

Yes, on the R56 you can get almost .4 negative camber if you follow the above procedure.
