It is perfect for my driving.
I guess I'm just lucky for now. I have learned in my years with MINIs and the research I did before lowering that some people have issues with camber and some don't. Plenty of people lower their cars and have very little if any adjustments to make and some have a ton.
Being an 06, my car does have a cetain amount of adjustability but I do plan to add more with some control arms. I made an appointment to have it aligned after I got new wheels but was assured that I didn't need it right now. I'll take it by the shop and have it reevaluated after a few more 1,000 miles on the springs.
I really don't think someone can tell me my camber isn't perfect or near perfect without ever seeing my car.

But if your's is "perfect" without ever experiencing a -2 front and -1.3 rear camber, then go for it!
cheers as always,

Well, I went the Lamin-X route and it gives a different look. I have all my lenses tinted dark (except for head lights and fog lights in the lower bumper) and they go with the whole DS/B dechromed look, but others might like the clean, clear light look, just as kyriian's car displays. So you can go clear, clear with tint, or stock with tint. Lots of choices...

ie. rear would slip out too easily. you can't say your setting is
'perfect' without knowing the other parts the other cars might
have, tires, and driver inputs. what works for you may or may not
work for everyone.
and im not talking about just cosmetics... oh it looks too slanted, let's
put it back straight. lol..
