I'm curious about the camber adjustment function. I assume with the camber plate there would be no way to run the tower bushings. Also, would they require a hole in the trunk to access the rear shock stiffness setting knob like the BC coilovers do. I noticed that the Maverick Man coilovers have the adjustment knob at the bottom of the rear shock but, they don't have camber plates. I will be putting these on a 2014.

there is little to no options with camber plates for us , those pictures are just random
also 11-13 are G8 fitments , and the 14-17 are chevy SS fitments
Thank you for the information. I was hoping the camber plates were for the Caprice but I'm not surprised the pictures are generic. Are you running any of these?

no , my 14 has SS springs
i had BC coilovers on my G8 until the rears blew out , then swapped to GXP struts and tein springs
I have BCs on our 2012. Got them used, and one pair was new from the PO as he had one blow out while still under warranty. I do not remember which end was the new pair.
They seem okay, but while my car is my DD, I now WFH 100% of the time, so we don't get many miles on it. They performed well at a couple of autocrosses we ran it in.
The only real big (to me) issue with the BCs is the rear struts are adjustable from the top, so you have to cut a hole into the trunk to access the adjuster, or to allow space for the adjuster to protrude into the trunk space. That metal is HARD, BTW. Notes on this are in my build thread.
