Need Toe Camber Help

I am lowered on BCs and just installed the spc rear camber kits. How easy is it to install the toe bolts? I just took mine to a shop and they said my rear section of the exhaust had to be removed to install em? So I still have the factory toe bolts on my car but my toe is in spec after alignment. But my camber is off. Im planning to get these toe bolts installed very soon. I didn't think it would be hard to just elongate the hole and screw it in without any adjustments. Help would be appreciated.

The exhaust will most likely have to removed depending on what exhaust it is. The bolt might be to long to get out with the exhaust in the way. Shouldn't be hard at all to remove part of the exhaust and get it installed. I would do that ASAP though so your tires will stay in good shape.

I have OEM exhaust. Still needs to be removed?

You should only need to remove the midpipe. If you have a dremel with a metal cutting bit, elongating the hole is a breeze.

Sounds like your shop is lazy and didn't want to do the job. With OE exhaust you just need to loosen the back half and remove the exhaust from the hangers,might take all of 5 minutes. Then there should be enough room to remove, elongate and replace the toe bolts. Not exactly rocket science....
