How to adjust camber for Megan Street Coilovers

I've just recently had my car aligned with toe, caster to be within spec. I had the front run negative camber, the front left is -2.9 and the right is -2.7. The thing is, the tech who did the camber adjustment maxed out my left coilover, but didnt max out my right one (which he thought he did). There's a little piece of rock that blocked it from being max, so I guess he assumed it was maxed. Now without me bringing it back to the shop, how would I adjust the camber to it'll be equal with the front left? I assume you lift up then front end, losen the two hex screws, and move it all the way and tighten it back up? Would that affect the toe and caster?

I don't have to do this, but knowing my front left is maxed and my front right isn't, it bothers me quite a bit. Reason I'm running negative camber is to clear my fenders with the new wheels (which it does clear with the current specs now).

Just leave it as is .2 is that much off.It shouldn't effect toe or caster cuz the coilover don't control that tie rods and tension rod will take care of toe and caster. Just try to take it back and tell him its pulling in that direction
