I'm assuming the top holes on the bottom brackets are egg shaped for camber bolts etc... I'm assuming you do not have camber bolts & did not push the spindle back properly prior to tightening the normal bolts down hella tight. Which could result in positive camber. Which would make sense as to why the camber plates above will not give enough negative camber.

How do you know you have no camber? Eyeballing? You can't really see -3 deg. When I was at -5 and -9 deg, those you could tell. What's the size of those 527's? If they're 17x9.75 +25, then you must have around -3 for them to fit like that.

Worth checking but here's my experience with that. I installed my coilovers with the knuckle pulled all the way out of the bracket for wheel to coil clearance. And with the top hats adjusted about 2/3 of the way in, my car had -3. So with the knuckle pushed in and the top hat maxxed it would be like -5, and that you can see.
