however, it is nice to refresh old ideas once in a while for new members. unfortunately, this method doesn't work on 6th accords..

the washers i used are a bit too small in depth so the camber is still a bit off, i got some bulkier washers but still needs to install them.

you can stack them.. just make sure you buy some longer bolts if you need a lot of camber adjustment.

by how much? for my civic, 4 washers gave it -1 camber, but that's since it's lowered by over 2"... if you use more than 3 washers, make sure you purchase longer bolts..

i used longer bolts, i think they recommend 40 and i got 45, and like i said it's still off, but i haven't got an allignment after and i just recently shaved a little bit of my control arm in the front so i'll take it to a shop to get an allignment soon.
