How bad is my alignment?

How bad is my alignment?
My daily driver is a 2009 G37s 6MT coupe. I am lowered on Eibach springs and ride on Hankook Ventus 245/40-19 tires mounted on 19” Forgestar F-14’s. I am currently at about 32,000 miles.
I just had an alignment done at Firestone Complete Auto Care located in Fuquay-Varina, NC (I know, funny name). I have attached the alignment specs, and wondered what everyone thought, and how I could improve them. My car currently pulls to the right a little, but after I brought it back to the same Firestone to check that issue, they said there was not much they could do, and that one tire might be heavier than the other, thus causing the pull.
The mechanic at Firestone also mentioned that a camber kit could really help me, so I am considering it, but need recommendations on which kit is best. Thanks for your help!

Firestone? I would have thought you guys from NC would have a better place to take your Gs than Firestone! Since you lowered your G37 it will need both front/back camber kits to bring your alignment back to OE specs. Don't you have a "Good Old Boys" alignment shop where you can get the job done right without going to FStone? They can install your camber kit too. Check our MARKETPLACE under vendor suspension for the best prices on the SPL camber kit....

HAHA....Who would have known? Sorry Ms. Swilli, I would have thought at 30 you might have guessed close and easy wasn't always the best choice! Like I previously posted you'll need both front and rear camber kits which will save your tires and make your G drive like Nissan intended only better.... "Good Luck!"

I see...so now that I'm a female, you are a little nicer? Haha...I see....
Well, I can only get one at this time; which is where my question came from about which would be better to get at this time, front or rear? Oh...and I'm all about easy....and close is definitely a plus.

Swilli, I didn't change my ideas just the approach and I'm always nice. Do the fronts first then, new adjustable SPL a-arms and an alignment will have to do for now. Have you located a independent brake/alignment shop in your area for the install? I have at least 3 such shops in my area that I trust with SLICK.
