You have coilovers with adjustable arms on your car. I'm not sure what kind of quote you are looking for but to do a true car setup including setting up your coilovers height, corner balancing, alignment, adjusting your rear control arms, etc will take time to do it properly. We don't "slap" the car together and just align it. We are professionals who take care in our reputation for setting up winning cars in both race and auto-x.

As Ivan said, Cheap, Fast, Good, pick 2.

Since your car has arms you are looking at a minimum without corner balancing of 2 hours @ $95/hr to align it with adjusting the arms and coils. We aren't the type of shop who quotes you $50 and then once it's on the lift turn around and say "Oh sorry, you have XYZ on your car it's going to be a lot longer to get this setup, please pay a significantly higher price than we quoted you".

So you can call our quote "crazy" or "LOL" but we only ask for honest prices for honest work. Nothing more, nothing less. We also don't do "cheap" work because our name and reputation since 2001 rides on every bit of work we do.

My apologies if that sounded douchey and if this thread is turning to nothing now but the 4-6 hours I was quoted in my opinion is a little ridiculous. Thank you for the clarification and yes I agree with you that a $50 shop isn't the way to go hence the reason I started this thread, to get others opinions. My apologies again for the way this went.

No worries, we understand that not everyone has the budget for a quality alignment, no harm, no foul!

Let us know if we can help, and as I said we like to quote high and then at the end of the day say "Guess what? We saved you $100 off what we originally quoted because it went well!" it's much easier than "Sorry but we need to charge you more because XYZ took longer than expected."

$125 is damn cheap for an alignment at a performance shop.

My dealership gets that much for a STANDARD toe-and-go alignment on a Corolla.

I would highly recommend Procom in Toms River NJ. They did a full race spec alignment on my car along with a corner balance. Came out perfect.
