Question Alignment

I went to a alignment shop the other day, and wanted to have the front camber more negative and the shop told me that there are no ways to do anything on oem front camber settings. Is it ture?

I have an E92 335i

You can drill out the alignment pin to get slightly more camber. If you want more without getting full on camber plates, you could also get m3 wishbones, and dinan "camber plates" (which aren't really camber plates, they just offset the mounting points on the strut for another -0.5 degrees)

Even taking out the pins won't get you much more. If you get camber plates on stock suspension, you will probably increase the ride height depending on brand/style. Easiest way to gain some negative camber up front is to install the M3 control arms.
