alright, i just put on some camber kits for the back of my car, now when i hit a really bad bump or turn left and accelerate, its makes a weird sound from my rear passenger tirewell, the sound could be anything, scraping, creaking, who knows, all i know is it is pissing me off cause i can't figure out what is causing it... i double checked everything to make sure all the bolts were tight and everything is good... when i am stopped and bounce the car up and down, nothing seems to hit and there isn't any sound... it is only when i turn left while accelerating, but not when braking, and when i hit a bad bump sometimes... someone please help.
 
what size tires do you have?
how low are u?
are u just lowered on coilovers?
you still have the stock struts?

A couple things come to mind...
one.. it could be that your tires may be rubbing on the inside of the fender well...
you may have blown struts...

my car use to make noises like a biatch when i had just El cheapo coilovers and stock struts.
i bought tokico5way struts and eibach springs and no more noises..
BTW i too have ignalls camber kit on all fours...

well, it was already lowered when i bought it, so to the best of my knowledge, it is dropped about two and a half inches with springs, not coilovers, and the shocks say kyb on them, but they look stock, iono if the car comes stock with kybs or not... the tires are 225/50/16 kuhmos
