Default I got slightly ripped off!!

I just got a "rear camber kit" from ebay and the fool just sent my the ghetto kit (Bolts and washers) BLAH!!!! At least I only paid 12 bucks for this crap but I still could've just went to the local hardware store though. Oh well!

My question is I know it's pretty budget but is it worth doing TEMPORARILY?? I just don't want to waste my time seeing that I already wasted some good drinking money doh!! doh!!

If it's just washers and such, you might as well install it. There are more expensive/complex solutions out there for too much negative camber in the rear, but IMO they're an even bigger waste of money for cars that see little or no track time.

If they are good quality hardware, I don't see why it isn't a good permenant solution? Of course if you are trying to compensate for like -4 degrees of camber then I would suggest getting the entire arm replaced with an adjustable unit, but unless you are using it on the track or need to adjust it for racing I don't see the need for buying a fully adjustable arm. The little ghetto washers with upgraded bolts will do fine, I just wouldn't stack more than two.
