Negative camber that high should never be anyone's goal. Why is everyone obsessed with having negative camber? But if thats your goal and If you want that much you'll need adjustable arms in the rear with maybe a longer piece of all-thread. And in the front you could try and have some custom camber plates made. Your tires, handling, and struts are going to hate you lol. Very interested in why you need that much camber?

Id recommend you just save up and get hotchkis camber arms, they're totally worth it. Those got me at -11* with some modifications. But if you're on a budget, you can try something like this lol

Without any modification, I maxed them out at -7*. For more you simply remove jam nuts and screw the shaft all the way in, that should get you up to like -10*. For some real demon camber you shorten the shaft by 1/4 to 1/2''. This is not even maxed out, so i put 1 of jam nuts back and i'm limited by inner wheel clearance now.

Front, I have 2 sets of camber bolts and camber top plates, maxed out at -7*. Idk if your coils have camber plates or not, but 2 sets of bolts can get you -4.5*.
