Default camber problem

I have a 2000 a6 4.2L. When I bought the car it had already been lowered with aftermarket springs and it threw the rear camber off around 1.5 degrees. I took it for an alignment and they told me it looked like it had some room to move but they could not do the work since my passenger trailing arm was slightly bent. I ordered one and am waiting for it to come in. My question is does anyone know how much adjustment there is and if anyone knows where I may be able to find a camber kit that is adjustable for this car. My other option is I could go back to stock springs if I have to but was hoping to avoid this. I have to get taken care of soon as it is trashing my tires. I would appreciate any info. Thanks, Brian

lowered audi's are forever doomed to neg camber. short of fabricating your own plate. there really is no kit's for our cars. i have heard of some adjutable controll arms but they are track used and would need to be replace too often.and wouldnt work for your rear. 1.5 is alot to be off. plus the rear has stock neg camber.
