After lowering the car Your supposed to get it alligned. I bought some Caster Camber plates and the mechanic says that there are rivitts on the stock cambers and said all you have to do is pop out the rivitts and he can adjust the stock camber plates and may not need the aftermarket Castercamber plates. Is this true? Should I just leave the stock Cambers?

Yup. Somtimes if the drop is not that low, they may be able to align and adjust the caster/camber with the stock plates. But since you already have the new plates, I'd use those...they will still give you more adjustability than the stock plates.

Thats what i did Adam...

all i did was drill out the ribits and adjusted my stock plates at the alignment shop..
and i had them set the camber at -1.5 which is great for agressive street driving. and doesnt ware your tires all
