They said "No." So I figure it would be best to go ahead and install the toe bolts and take it back to Firestone to get the toe dialed into 0 deg rather than to pay a shop $80 to try and get it in spec with the stock bolts. Right now I am only out $10 for drill bits and a couple hours tomorrow to do the install.
You can always get the toe back to spec, but the camber will suffer or vice versa. You cannot get both back to spec without a camber kit and toe bolts... so either live with -2.8 camber or get a set of toe bolt and camber arms!
