Wielhoven most likely?

You send/give original part to them and get modified if I remember correctly, for other than V360Cup cars it did cost something very little.

they stopped doing the camber conversions 2 years ago, the'll only accept cup-drivers now.
But it's an easy operation.. you drill new holes more to the outside of the subframe, then weld reinforcement plates over the holes. That's it.. sadly this is not ideal for street use, and it's not adjustable so your stuck with it.
Slotting the topmount holes might be a more practical approach for a street driven car.

You got it on your street/project car right? What is your experience on the street then?

I would go for the camber plates if I cared about my 360.. but I dont so I will just do the regular camber conversion myself when I feel more confident about my welding. That also answers the question about my experiences with the camber adjustment.. I have none, but I did have contact with wielhoven about it.. first they would do it for me, but my subframe was rotted to badly so I never took them up on the offer.. then when I had a better one a year later they wouldnt help me anymore.
