Default caster/camber plates

I got new tires and got a alignment done. My caster was bad 0.8 degrees on front driver wheel, and 2.3 of passenger front wheel. 0.8 is reall bad, but the guy at NTB said he cant do anything . I was reading that the are caster camber plates to help fix my problem. I was looking at some at American Muscle.com. Are they easy to install? I only have basic hand tools. and basic knowledge. How much would it cost to get them installed by a shop? And any recommendations

they are easy to install and if caster is that bad on one side..I'd look at lower control arm and make sure bushings are good and that it is not bent/teaked in anyway..but they are easy to install and maximum motorsports sells a decent set and after installation a complete alignment should be done in the front
