Need some advice

My 2007 G35s Sedan was in need of front lower ball joints, my car has 230,000 miles on it. Because of its age and miles, I decided to just change out the whole lower control arm. I found a set on rock auto and now I am regretting it.

I installed them Friday night and had it aligned and with new tires. One look at the car after it came out I could see the camber is way off, and the spec sheet confirmed, see below. Where should I go from here? Should I return the control arms? If so, what is my best bet to get ball joints and bushings replaced? Should I get a set of adjustable upper control arms? If so will they have enough adjustment to compensate for being off this much?

I'm pretty sure they sent you the wrong upper control arms, you probably ended up with the ones for a 2007 coupe, not the sedan ones. Look up the same part number for a 2008 sedan, they should both use the exact same parts and the part numbers should match.
