Update 3/13/2012
Well, the megan camber arms have been installed. So have the SPC camber ball joints for the front. I have also rolled, and did a slight pull to all four fenders. I was getting major rubbing on the front passenger wheel liner, but I didnt want to cut it because of the wires that sit behind.
What I did was get a small metal bowl, and with my heat gun at max setting, I heated the liner untill it was soft. Then I pushed the bowl so that it would get a round form and not tear. For the exeption of where the fog light sits, it is perfectly round. Now I have over an inch of clearance between the liner and the tire at full turn.
The "Tab" mod is what we called it in the GTI forums, its the "screw" mod here. Do a search, there are many threads about is. Im not that dumped, so I was able to just push the metal tab back some them place a flat headed screw with a washer, and there is no rubbing at all.
The camber kit work great. I will post my results of the alignment today. I got almost no camber in the rear, the toe is within spec, and the front sits just as good. But I would recomment for everyone using the Megan rear camber arms, to also get the Figgs toe arms as well. I am almost maxxed out on the stock adjustment bolt.
