Hi guys, I have been quoted $655 by a suspension place to put in struts and springs(supplied), Vlamos Front LCA bushes and steering rack bushes (supplied) with an alignment. Is this a reasonable price?
Note: As for the install of the struts and springs, my old top hats need to be put onto the new struts but apart from that nothing else needs to be fiddled with.

You may need ne bump stops. will need new dust boots ont eh shocks, but they arent as important as the bump stops.
The p[rice isnt too great really, even if they do an alignment woo. The shocks and spring side should only be $200 of labour.
The lower bushes arent fun to put in, but even $200 (read 3 hours labour) is alot for the job. An alignment is only $55 when shopping around.
Steering rack bushes are a piece of piss, especially when you have the car int eh air, or on an alignment machine, half hour max if theyre not a retard mechanic
