Default Alignment issues

After reading all the threads on lowering the C6, I decided to give it a try. Before making any changes, I recorded all the stock alignment settings, and was suprised to find the right rear at 0.5 degrees POSITIVE camber. I adjusted it using the stock bolt, but could only get to 0 degrees before the bolt was maxed out. All I can think is the slot the bolt sits in must have been machined out of spec.

Has this happened to anyone else?
Where do they sell camber plates for the C6?

Are you sure that you are adjusting the correct cam, there is a lot of adjustment available. And 1/2 positive does not sound right from the factory either.

All other three tires measures within spec. Only the right rear was a problem. I double and tripple checked the measurement. The cam bolt I adjusted is the lower control arm front mounting bolt.
