My bad. Yes, get the rear left camber to match the rear right even if it means you'll have to go more negative on that side. You want to minimize cross camber as much as possible to avoid pulling. Plus you'll wear out the tires more evenly.
The tech sure did put a lot of toe out on the rear though. Most guys run more toe-in in the rear for stability. I've ran toe-out in the rear before and it gets pretty unstable sometimes.

Getting it to spec is no longer valid when you are lowered a few inches. There is no reason to want OEM specifications if you're not using OEM suspension. At this point, getting the left and right side to match up is more important. Reduce toe-in up front if you want a slightly longer tire life. Other than that, the front end looks reasonable.
