2003 Acura TL camber adjustment

hey everyone,
i need to adjust the camber for a stock 2K3 TL Base.
The suspension has not been modified at all but it has been in a few fender benders and I'm think it's finally taken somewhat of a toll on my mother's TL.
I just need a quick home grown solution that i can utilize my garage tools to adjust the stock camber.
Without having to purchase a kit or additional camber bolts does anyone have a proven solution that has worked for them?

If your camber is out of spec with OEM suspension, then you have a bent arm somewhere. It's better to replace the damaged pieces, as OEM replacements from a junkyard are cheap.

How do you know it's the camber that is out? you shouldn't feel camber under normal driving conditions; only caster or toe.

Chances are either way that it's the lower control arm; but hard to know 100% so I would recommend a lifetime alignment so you can take it back and get it re-aligned for free when you replace each part...unless you just want to throw all new parts (lower, upper control arms; knuckle and radius rod <---discontinued for passenger side)

I’ve always done my own work on car and am new to modding… I never even knew a “lifetime alignment” was a thing. Something I’m going to look into. Thanks
