Adjustable Camber?
Has anyone found out how (if) the camber is adjustable on the front of the 07s yet?

Waylen saw them when he was in England this fall, and commented that it looked like the fronts were slotted for some (limited) camber adjustment. He was guessing that you might be able to get -1deg.

R56 strut tower camber adjustment
I took a couple of pictures of the front strut towers with the nuts removed this weekend. It looks like there is a small amount of adjustment available there.

Yea, that's what mine looks like too. Now I'm just waiting for a confirmation that we can removed the little allen socket head. (Solo stock rules require the FSM to state something like that specifically.

Per, one more thing to look at... the ball joint on the front lower control arm. Are the holes slotted? Could be some more adjustment there.
