If you don't want to get camber plates (for rule reasons, if they're not allowed), you can install camber bolts on the bottom of the MZ4 front strut to increase camber. Turner Motorsports sells them:

Yes it says E36/Z3 but it works on the MZ4. Trust me. Each washer will get you about another 0.5 degrees of additional negative camber, I'm running 2 washers with the strut pushed out to get to about -2.5 degrees for a dual purpose MZ4 Coupe. Will eventually get camber plates, but for now this solution will suffice.
Hack,
I had already ordered the kit, but sent an email to the guys at Turner letting them know that their kit works on the E86 (per you) but they just sent me an email back stating that it would in fact not work...

Could you shed some light on this and/or possibly take pictures of your completed work so I can make sure my alignment shop knows what they're doing?

Thanks!
