Negative Camber?

Is anyone familiar with a means to add a degree or two of negative camber? I have looked at camber kits online and they are all primarily designed to take away the negative camber that results from lowering the suspension. I am having issues with the front tires making contact with the fender at the track during hard cornering.

This probably won't help you (for a couple of months, anyway, until parts get to dealers) but the 2012's have increased negative camber at the front (where it is most needed, IMO). I have to believe there are some hardware changes to allow this adjustment in camber.

roll the

fender.
Camber eccentrics will add as well as remove neg camber.
Have you tried dropping it a bit and going with firmer springs?
