Anyone know where I can get an alignment for my (pretty low) car? I just installed the coilovers, took it to Towne BMW, and they couldn’t get it on their alignment machine since it’s so low. Any help would be appreciated. Anything in the Buffalo area would be awesome. ![http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i153/drewstermalloy/JCW/IMG_01292.jpg](http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i153/drewstermalloy/JCW/IMG_01292.jpg) ---

Since my issues at Licatas I’ve had a couple people tell me Scruggs Auto on Transit near Wherle does a good job. I’ll be trying them out for my next alignment. ---

yeah take that splitter and lip off and you can probably take it anywhere. is this the white mini that’s poking with cf flares and big-lipped wheels? ---

for what its worth i took my audi (which i do NOT consider to be that low) to firestone on maple and went for the lifetime alignment package. i figured this would be the best option for me since im on kw v3 coils and plan to raise it for winter and lower it come spring… $179 = as many alignments as you want…FO LYFE VS. $100 = one 4 wheel alignment at most area shops ---

The sound of this car is probably my favorite part. It’s the stock exhaust but I don’t think I even want to change it. > [@HallockR](#): > > yeah take that splitter and lip off and you can probably take it anywhere. > > is this the white mini that’s poking with cf flares and big-lipped wheels? Noooo poking wheels. I’m not a fan of that look at all. I’ve never seen cf flares on a mini so I’m guessing it’s an older one, 2006 or older. ---

I paid that same price for my Fox Mustang since my IRS put it into a ‘custom’ category. ---
