My dealer did my springs shocks and struts (which should be the same labour) and alignment for $300. They also told me that the alignment fell right into OE spec even after the drop (which they didn't think would be possible).

I lowered mine with a hacksaw and blowtorch, did the alignment with a ruler and rubber hammer. Rides better than stock and didn't cost no $800.

So I called Wheel Power in Huntington Beach for a quote on the cost for H&R sport springs installed and they gave me $800 as the price tag.... That seems really high for some reason I thought I could get these installed for around $500.. Perhaps someone knows some other shops? oor does that sound right? 
Also they said they cant really realign my wheels after a lowering? this sounds strange.... I was at EF1 motorsports and they said they install the springs let them set for a week then align them after they set.... didn't ask for there price with install at the time.... Anyways I'm really confused at this point lol
