Yeah well I can take a crap and call it art also, but that does not mean its art.

OK I understand. You will have to live with a wonky alignment. No easy way to fix it that I know of. Post a picture of your car. I'd like to see it.

On the front end of the rear trailing arm is a pivot bracket that attaches to the body with some fasteners.... They can be loosened (oblong holes).... The bracket can then be moved to adjust the rear toe.... Then retighten the same fasteners after the toe is set....
The bracket is #7

I know with some setups, you have to modify the toe adjustment bracket - grind out slots longer, etc.

^^^^^ I know what you are saying but with that "stance" look and -9 degrees of camber tires are never going to last long.
Show cars like that always look cool on display but are horrible to drive.
Rear tires that tucked and -9 equal your tires are always going to be F*%ked. -

For more info on the Stance look check out the Stance Works site. Not my thing but I appreciate their automotive chops.

Where do I fall in this philosophy then?
You know my R53 isn't a plain jane build, and has been called a work of art... Is the only reason that it doesn't fall into the shift pile category the fact it can still get down on twisted blacktop? -
