You can get offset rear camber bushings from pdm-racing if the camber is way off.  If the camber isn't off too much, the factory adjustment may be sufficient.  When I lowered my car (Eibach ProKit) my rear camber set right at -1 degree w/o any alignment...could probably get it 0 degrees if I wanted to.

take it to an alignment shop...it's not a DIY project b/c it requires very specialized and hi-tech alignment tools.  Most shops will let you go back and watch how it's done, though.
