I'm not knocking Vernon... they've taken good care of me a few times, but then there's been times I've gotten my car back with a crooked steering wheel and been told it's the crown in the road.

One of the places I called was Mizelle's in Norfolk and I spoke with Mark, he said he was going to have to bend my subframe to align the rear of my car and I was looking at $250-$350 for an alignment.

^ Actually everytime I need to set my camber I jack the car up and beat on the rear cradel with a sledge hammer to make it right. I wonder what the fatigue life of that reare subframe is

They shouldnt have any issues doing your car at all, and they will align it however you want if you ask.
