Default 5th Gen Prelude Adjustable Camber Kits

OK SO...what is the shortage of adjustable camber kits for Preludes? Is it some quest I need to conquer? The only ones I've found allow for like 3 degrees of adjustment and are either adjustable upper control arm mounts or adjustable sliding upper ball joints. I've had sliding upper ball joints on a 94 CD5 and they would slam crazy hard into the top of the shock tower part of the body on a hard bump. Say I lower my car 2.5" or so, is 3 degrees of camber adjustment gonna be enough? I'm half temped to custom fabricate adjustable sliding ball joint mounts on my stock control arms. What have you guys done for your lowered Prelude?

2.5" drop!!!!!! COT dang, boy.

Use an extremely stiff spring and maybe use the shock's bumpstop to keep you from slamming into the shock tower.

Does Skunk2 make a pro series kit for the Prelude? They are pretty low profile...and the ball joint is aiight. It's definitely not the same quality as an OEM joint, but there are no aftermarket joints that get close to OEM quality.

With a 2.5'' drop, the car will likely benefit from some camber correction. Since the prelude is similar to the Accord...the rear wheels will need a ton of camber correction as well.
