if I'm reading the printout correctly (the AFTER row)

Left front camber is off (too little) as is the right camber (too much)

otherwise, good to go.

Was your gas take full when you took it in?

With what I see in the rear...I wonder if any of the front is correct. It looks like the machine is out of calibration.
