Eccentric Washer from Camber Missing..Problem?

So I just got done with my alignment after installing the SPC F/R setup and Stance coils. Alignment felt good driving home and seemed alright.

Was cleaning up the garage and found one of the Eccentric Washers presumably from the stock camber bolts on the floor (old toe bolts had their washers on them, new ones from SPC kit are on the car)...

Need to know if this is a problem that this is not on the car. Camber should now be adjusted via the arms but I'm somehow thinking this is not good at all to not have a washer on one side of the car (not sure which one... cannot jack it up right now).

Have called and left a message with the alignment shop to see if they remember seeing the washers on there or if they somehow magially had one and added it... meantime I need to know how urgent it is that I fix this or if I should at all. Not sure I want to drop the cash on the lockouts yet when I'm still using the spring bucket instead of buying the SPL toe arms and am not currently tracking the car.

Would I need to get the alignment redone? Just paid these guys like $100 for this so am really hoping they'll work with me on this one and not charge more.

Will talk to them about it then. One side has the washer as part of the head of the bolt I'm assuming its the other side thats missing it.

Thanks for the advice. Fortunately I'm not driving on it much this week so it shouldn't be a major issue until I can get it in there.
