Default alignment???

I need an alignment for civic thats lowered and most places aren't able to get my car on the lift because my headers get in the way. So i was wondering if anybody in the orlando, cocoa, melbourne area knows of any places. Thank you

Look up road racing oriented performance shops. There are in-ground alignment machines that can align just about anything. You'll pay a good chunk more though.

Find a shop with a laser aligner. The alignment heads are wireless, and they will be able to take the turnplates from the alignment rack and put them on the floor in another bay. Then they can move the main machine to that bay and do your alignment. I used to do it all the time. Your alignment only consists of setting the toe (unless you've installed a camber/caster adjustment kit), so unless the mechanic is really lazy, it is an easy adjustment.
