Alignment shop in Broward

I had some springs installed today & I'll need an alignment after it settles. Looking for a good shop that can do lowered f8x (oooobviously).

did a search and got the answer, also in that thread i read for the first time that the camber can't be correctly set with eibach springs? anyone else have experience with not getting the correct alignment with eibach springs?

I just lowered my F80 about a few months ago and went to Euromotive Performance (Located in Hallendale Beach FL). The shop is clean and staff are extremely knowledgeable. The think they use the newest Hunter alignment machine. I do have to say their prices are not discounted like some other shops, so basically higher end. But you get what you pay for. I posted my experience with the shop on my F80 Journal.

I don't have any experience with Eibach springs so I wouldn't be able to chime in on that. I'm sure the guys at Euromotive can be of more help.

i just got the lifetime from firestone I think most shops use hunter anyways, I looked into euromotive I think there price was like 200 for that I could just go to the dealer for 180. I had the drift right issue even after 2 alignments so I had the dealer update my software and that fixed it

I called them and they didn't seem to be familiar with this install. They said it would take about 15 hours and quoted me over $2K for labor.
I went elsewhere and it took a bit over 2 hours to get it done. Thanks for the contact anyway!

Thanks, Paul! I am pretty happy with the install, look and feel of the new springs. I will go for down pipes next!

I've used Fortune Minds Garage off commercial. They have a great in-ground alignment rack, so lowered car's don't require make-shift ramps. I wouldn't let them do anything other than an alignment though.
