ST V1... Get Camber Plates or New Coilovers

I have ST V1. My front end is making some noise, and we've tracked it down to most likely the stock upper mounts. Since I could benefit from a little more camber up front (I'm at -1.6 right now), do I get some camber plates for these or get a new set of coilovers that have them built in?

Thanks!

cheapest route is new upper mounts, then get some used fixed chamber dinan plates that add like -0.8 degrees. they are usually like $150.

Not a bad idea also

Thanks!

If you don't track the car, -1.6 is more than you need for a street car. Try a little bit less toe-in if you are looking for better turn-in and steering response.
