Good or bad.. Pricing...
MAYBE some of you might know i mentioned this in other threads. BUT not really got an answer for it.
So, i have lowered 1.7 inch with Tein SS.
And i got my camber kit (ingalls)
And therefore, its time for Alignment.
So, here it is, there's
1) Alignment shop charging me for $320 (4 wheels align + camber kit installation)
Said to be by hand Align. ?!?!
2) Second shop charging me around $200 (4 wheels align + camber kit installation)
I suppose this is by computer!?
3) Third Shop - Named Farstone charging me for $75 with only (4 wheels align)
I will have to get someone to install camber kit for me.
__________________________________________________ _______________
Installation of camber kit only.
1) one charging me for around $100 and the other one charging me for $140 firm.
So, ANYWAY, what's a good price for installing camber kit and Alignment??
How much did you guys pay?!?!
THANKS !! and sorry for quite a bit of reading.

rear camber kit should only cost like $60? And for alignment I think going rate is around $70. Never heard of alignment by hand, but nothing wrong with machine alignments. If you plan on adjusting your height a couple of times I would get a lifetime Firestone alignment plan for like $170, I tried but my car was too low.

Install the camber kit yourself and get 4-wheel alignment at any place for about $50-$80.
No body is doing manual alignment these days, except for cash in their own garage.

Thanks for the answer!!
Well, i didn't choose to go for firestone in the end. Just because they dun want to install the camber kit for me. I just didn't want to run two places.
So, i ended up going to " JUST TIRES " like a 5 mins drive from my house.
It cost me 89 for the alignment.. + Installation of rear camber kits at 90.
Thinking that it sounds OKAY and i let them do it for me.
Takes about 2 hours ++ . and they told me there's a 6 months gaurantee or something.
Should look okay ehh?!?!
And btw, i realized that the steering wheel's a LITTTTTTLE bit off. Is it okay to drive that way?!? or do i NEED to go back and get them to do it for me again?

THe time when i first did the alignment in that shop. it was SO hot in there.
Well, if the LITTLE-off alignment doesn't hurt my car, i really dun mind driving it tho.
