that's like the biggest scam to screm someone over ever lol

If it's a different size, then Koni should have included the proper thread bolt/nut to use.

Your last sentance didn't any sense...

ALWAYS empty the box or dig around in it till you know nothing is left inside.

Hey at least it came with bolts and you didn't have to go find any. Thats what my friend and I had to do when we rebuilt a d15b2 that was sitting in his garage. Luckly every bolt we needed was mixed in with other bolts in a big bucket.... but it runs

But anyways one more question. After getting the coil-overs set right and go in for an alignment, does it matter where i go? Or i should be asking if shops would be picky about having a camber kit on and would they adjust the camber also?

They will adjust it is much as they can. Different shops have different techniques for fixing it as best they can. Some will bend the arms to do so which I would NEVER allow to be done to my car no matter how bad the camber is. bending arms is the WORST thing you can do to fix it. Just go around to shops and price them out and also ask if they would mind aligning your car. The shop I last went to didn't charge me when I went because he said my alignment was within spec. he attached the laser system to thw wheels and double checked using a measuring tape and level guide. He said whatever I had done was right on point. Funny thing was I had brought it in because I changed some suspension parts and was certain I had messed up at least the toe angle. He was good and thurough though and took his time with it while I watched, I'd definitely go back again!
