Default Maxed out on alignment adjustment

Hey guys. I just bought my first s2k and I'm hoping someone here has been throught this before. I got an 05 that has been lowered about 1.5'' on Megans. I spent a few hours this weekend going over it and checking the alignment. It's not terrible, but there are a couple things that are completely out of adjustment.

The rear camber is my main concern. Right now it's at about -2.7 to -3.0, and I can't take any more out of it (my goal is -2.0). Has anyone found a way to overcome this? Have you seen a camber kit for an 05 that will work? Is there anyone out there using aftermarket A-arms?

The only other way I see to fix this is to raise the car back up .

You can buy roll center adjusters. That's weird that you can't take any more out of it, though. Was the car ever in an accident? Are you sure you're turning the correct bolt?

An alignment tech once turned the toe bolt on my car for like 15 mins in frustration and confusion as he was trying to adjust my camber before I asked "are you trying to adjust toe or camber right now? cuz you're turning the toe bolt"
