Did you get an alignment afterwards?

you can mark before you drop it but i would get an alignment.

Damn, I need to think about get an older cheaper 08/09 under $30k car then add this header better than buy a $40k+ newer 11/12 model

I marked my subframe before I dropped it and had the alignment checked afterwards and it was perfectly fine, no adjustments needed. Having said that, I'd still get it checked just to be sure.

No because I did it over the winter but that's the first thing when my car comes out.
You have no choice to do it even if you just lower the subframe. Even with marking the subframe you could be slightly off. I wouldn't cheap on 50$

Of course. I wasn't sure if there was a trick though.

My winter truck is in pieces, the ISF has snow tires. WTF. Great planning on my part. I had HOPED to have had the winter for car mods. Sigh.

The only thing that the installer did for me was mark the steering and paid real close attention to the way he put it back. The other stuff he did not mess with and no alignment was needed. Whoever said $50 alignment needs to refer me to them. Lexus charges minimum $150 for alignment and I just had mine couple months ago.

$150 is very high considering only front and rear toe is adjustable. My Lexus dealer does it for $99 with a coupon and that still seems high. There isn't more than 20 minutes involved in aligning an isf unless you have adjustable aftermarket camber kits.

I dont have that coupon and $150 is the going rate here. My dealer actually gave me brand new bridgestones and aligned the car right before buying. Regardless, Eman at NA Peformance did my install without needing an alignment so money saved right there and the headache to go get an alignment.
