This is how my shop setup the alignment based on dual duty street/track. Speaking of, I think I'm almost ready for my first track day, just need to change the factory oil.
this set up was without the RSR camber plate? Or was it with the camber plate?

I don't have the RSR adjustable pillow ball camber plates, just the stock RSR coilovers. One of the stock plates is rotated 180 degrees though - my shop said the other didn't need to be rotated.

Looks great. Got project aero splitter on the front too

Looks like you're on a slope, so wheel gap probably isn't what it normally looks like, but you're on coils so nobody is going to compare the drop.

Is that the normal front toe range? The info I have has 0 +2/-1 mm toe. Which yours would still be in range but since you're adjusting I would think you'd want closer to zero for less front wear, still streetable handling.
I'm not sure tbh! I guess I'll see how it goes with the wear.

it looks like you have front toe-in and rear toe-in
front toe-in seem a little odd to me - rear toe-in seems fine
It's more common to see zero toe up front or some toe-out up front.

did you tell them what alignment specs you wanted?
This kinda looks like a default "make sure the car goes straight" alignment

Thanks for the advice - I just told them that I wanted it setup for dual use - street/track. So if I take it back to the shop, I should ask for somewhere between 0-1.0 total toe in up front, and if it's possible for them to get the front camber closer to equal on both sides?

Toe is set by a tie rod on both sides and doesn't involve unbolting something, so it should be easier to hit a target than camber. A tiny bit on the positive toe in is better than toe out for street

Toe in (positive toe) up front does make it a bit less darty than zero or negative toe. Some people prefer this for street (and dual purpose) cars. Just got a customer car aligned with toe in for this exact reason

"Stiff ride" and "darty" are just adjectives for an "engaging ride" 😆
