Front Camber Adjustment

Just had my alignment done today. My front right camber is -1.2
Shop said the only way to fix it was new control arms. True?

Left side is -.09

Is this a big deal -1.2 is just past the min for 19's.

Yes. there is no front factory adjustment. Are you worried about tire wear? or performance? your lowered about a inch upfront? If you have the extra cash i would throw arms upfront. 2 tires almost = the cost of some brand name front arms.

What should the front alligment be? i have 06 sedan and im about to install 19 on there but my old 18's the inside got chewed up in 8 month and cords already coming out bad. I have megan coilover all around and rear are perfectly fine and the front are being eaten up like crazy. my font is lowered about 1.5" i was thinking of dropping another .5"
And which controls be best to get?

The amount of camber that you are running up front isn't bad at all. I'm running -1.1 up front and my tires are wearing damn near even. I have SPC front Control arms.
