My front camber is -1.5 left, -0.5 right. Is that bad? Everything else is even.

Yup....Sounds like you need to shift the subframe....
To even that out at .75 per side. The lower suspension arms are mounted to that frame. The only way to bring it back when off that much is to loosen the 4 bolts hoding the subframe on and moving it..

No, the cross camber should be .3 or less
Some have said .5 is acceptable, but you're at 1.0 now. The car probably "pulls" toward the .5 side pretty aggressively if you let go of the wheel. A "telltale" of excessive cross camber...

make sure you take it to a good shop..
i took mine to a generic chain shop first, and they didn't even know what shifting the subframe meant.. and they only gave me a 2-wheel aligment! haha.. results were crappy and all out of spec still, but they were still happy to charge me and say my car was aligned.
