I'd rather move the Accidental. Both below:
{
\once \override Parentheses.stencils =
#(grob-transformer 'stencils
(lambda (grob orig)
(cons (ly:stencil-translate-axis (car orig) -1 X) (cdr orig))))
<\parenthesize f a!>4
\once \override Staff.AccidentalPlacement.right-padding = 0.5
<\parenthesize f a!>4
}
HTH,
