Most of the fees seem reasonable if you did not already pay them when you leased. Check your agreement to make sure you have not.
The inspection fee is pure theft (I think) call around to some independent shops and see what they charge for such an inspection. Bet it is not even close to that. Tell them you will have it done elsewhere if they will not meet the lowest price you can find. They can not force you to have them do it.
What the hell is a "lieu" tax anyway? Get that one explained and see if it seems real.
The other unreasonable fee is $400 for "documentation. Ask exactly what that is for and what YOU get from it. It is not up to you to pay for their costs of doing business. Personally, I would walk before I would pay them this unless it in some way was a benefit to me.
