Skunk2 makes a nice front camber kit and as for the rear its all a matter of preference. You can shim the rear or you can get an adjustable arm or you can just make one yourself out of a set of sperical rod bearings and a shaft to mount them in.

the bolt that goes through the shock tower to bolt the front upper control arm to the shock tower there are camber kits where just those bolts are replaced. A cam bolt replaces those stock bolts (or studs) and has a hole drilled where the cam bolt mounts to the upper control arm this hole is offset and you can turn this hole to adjust your camber. Most camber kits are designed this way if you go to an alignment shop not neccesarily a honda shop but ask for a cam bolt what mechanics have been calling them for years some shops may be able to get them and some wont have a clue what youre talking about if they dont know what youre talking about its not a great alignment shop. The one they have is probably going to be the one I am refering to its just got an indian head on the front of a red and white box should be $50-$75.

Cam bolts at least what Im thinking off have a head with an irregular offset (the surrouding area on the head is not spherical but rather oval). When you turn the bolt the head presses against the suspension component and either pushes or pulls it in a direction. With our uppper arms I dont see how that would work. Got any links or pics of the setup Id like to see how it works.
