rear toe adjustment kits?

hey guys I installed kw v1 coils on my g37s. And also got spl rear camber kit to correct the rear camber angle. But tire shop couldn't get the rear camber back into factory spec. Mechanic says they were trying to go positive camber but the toe went off. So current rear camber is -2.8, -2.2 on left and right.
My car is dropped mild like an inch or so. Seems like spl rear camber kit does not comes with toe bolts neither require drill job. Do you guys think rear toe kit is needed in this situation? It is really bugging me out since I dropped my car.

Something doesn't sound right, w/ a mild 1" drop and having the camber arms they should be able to get the camber much better w/ the toe in spec. If you were dropped lower than I'd say the toe kit would be req'd. If you don't plan to go lower in the future than you should be OK w/ just the arms, but I'd be sure to get them if you do want to drop it more. Might also find another alignment shop or take it back and have them show you why they can't get it better.

tireshop says that camber and toe got connected and they were able to get toe in spec but not camber still remain negative. I don't understand either. I know that alignment depends on mechanic. Thank you for your help blnewt!
