SLAM IT! The right way
There are several different options I am finding online to correct your camber after lowering your car. One kit is the upper control arm with an adjustable ball joint, and the other are simple attachmets to your existing equipment. I want something that works well and safe without burning unnecessary cash.
So, what is the best way to correct your camber other than not lowering it to begin with?

camber schmamber who cares. unless your car is lowered to the point of having tire contact issues or has a crazy offset i think thy are a waste. just my personal opinion.

I've been running -2 degrees front, -2.5 degrees rear for 20K miles on the same tires with no visible camber wear.
A little camber is good for handling and tire clearance. You won't have tire wear issues as long as you zero the toe and keep it zeroed.

Re: SLAM IT! The right way
damn. i got my kits to dial in more camber. i say for the front always get one with a adjustable ball joint. not the ones that replace the inner bushings. those are crap.

Re: SLAM IT! The right way
A camber kit, some new LCAs, and a little research on the specific ride height should suffice. In addition I would overhaul most of the parts in that area, ball joints, springs, and so on so you don't have to go back later. It's a more expensive route but it will pay off big time if you plan on keeping the car.
Get ready to fear speed bumps and cringe after hitting potholes. Ha ha. Give us pics of the final though.
Lastly, please don't cut springs...it's just lame.
