Coilover and rear toe arm help

i bought my g37 coupe as a rebuilt title, it was hit on the rear left side and was "repaired", body work looks good and panel alignments between fender, taillight and bumper looks good, but the left rear wheel wasn't sitting right. i took it to get an alignment and they couldn't get it perfect it still has slight positive camber on that side and it slightly wears the outside of that tire. i currently have adjustable camber and traction arms, so i need adjustable toe arms to get the wheel back into perfect alignment.
my main question is what's my best option getting adjustable arm or bringing the car to someone who can check whats causing the issue like something is bent?
i use this car for a daily and don't want anything stiffer than stock and would only want a mild drop.
price isn't the biggest problem but with using the stock divorced setup i only see the spl or nismo toe arms with spring mount for over 1000$ vs a true coilover setup that i can just get toe arms for 200$.
currently looking at tein flex z for 1200$ plus spl arm for 1100, total 2300$ or bc racing br for 1200 plus z1 toe arms for 200, total 1400
feel like the tein is more of what i'm looking for but its a pretty big difference in price.
is there any true coilover setups that are good for street driving, ie not too stiff and are compliant, i live in nj and are roads are pretty trash
any and all opinions and suggestions welcome, thanks

I would say yes, you probably want to take it to a shop that can tell you what's different between the left and right sides that's causing your positive camber and uneven tire wear. It could be as simple as a bent suspension arm, or it could be something more major like a deformed/bent mounting point. Find out which piece of the suspension is causing the issue first, and then decide how you want to spend your money.
