2008 E350 camber -2.5deg shop says something bent

I just got done replacing my lower control arms because the bushings were cracked. Also the ball joints and upper control arms.

I took it to the shop to get aligned this morning and the shop just called me...they told me -1.5deg camber driver and -2.5 passenger. (I used a level gauge and that's what I read too, but I thought it may have been just my gauge or garage floor etc).

He said that something must be bent somewhere. He is setting the toe up so its driveable, but obviously something is wrong on that side.
Any ideas what to do or where to look? Never ran into this before...

EDIT: PS -- there are no signs of any car accidents. Bumpers, fenders and hood are original and no signs of any paint work. Everything still has original stickers on them etc...
