Camber Kit/Bolt Questions

So I went to get new tyres today and when the guy is doing the alignment, we find out the right front wheel has about 2.5degrees of neg camber, while the front left has virtually nothing.
I had the lower control arms replaced recently because I bent one when I had a small low speed hit into the kerb - most likely culprit of the camber issues...

To fix up this camber issue do I need a camber 'kit' or camber 'bolts'?

Something like this from AutohausAZ

or a camber 'kit' like this jobbie from Kmac

My only goal here is to eliminate the camber from the front wheels so they are zero degrees each, or to set them both at an EVEN camber of -1 or -2...

Thanks!

Is your car lowered?

If so you may need the Camber bolts.

If not, the problem should be a simple 4 wheel alignment

Yep the car is lowered.

But the issue is that one wheel has some camber and the other doesn't - makes driving in a straight line difficult!

So the camber bolts from autohaus az should be ok? Easy to install?

Thanks
