Default Evo adj lower control arms help

Ok so started my enforcer lift. Got everything ready to be buttoned up but there seems to be a clearance issue.

It says make sure the control arms bend towards the inside of the vehicle which they are. The only thing I noticed was the gold screw was opposite as the picture so maybe the control arm is on the wrong side?

I'm done for the day but any help would be appreciated.

I wish everything came marked. I don't want to have to take everything off to swap out the control arms. The springs were super hard to get in as it is.

When I installed mine with my coilovers I faced the bolted clamp part downward. Haven't had any issues.

I can't tell if they are on the correct side from the picture.

However, you shouldn't have to have the bolts facing down. Here is mine:

Thanks for the picture. The more I keep looking at it the more I think I need to swap sides.
