Alignment for lowered cars and powercoating?

Alignment for lowered cars and powercoating?
Okay guys, looking for 2 things. First of all, I have BC Coilovers with camber plates in the front, and I need to get an alignment on my speed 3. Only problem is the car is dropped on its nuts, so i can't just get on to any ramp. Does anyone on here do alignments, or know of anyone who do really good alignments and don't charge an arm and a leg? I had it done by Stu at Quality on Williamson last year, and he said we didn't have to touch it, it was already aligned. I was like, wtf? You're telling me I put on fulling adjustable coilovers, and the car was perfectly within spec? I don't believe that for a second. The steering wheel is angled to left for car to go straight, and it pulls to left or right, and just does not drive stable. I need a good, quality alignment, and just wondering if you guys have someone you would recommend?
Secondly, is there any powdercoaters on here that powercoat wheels for a good price, and does good quality work? I want to powdercoat my 18x8.5" wheels either matte black, or a high gloss silver. They are pretty simple 5 spoke wheels with no lip.
Any help is appreciated!

Take your car to Firestone at tanglewood and ask for Tim. Im putting my coilovers on next week and plan on slamming it...he's who will be doing my alignment.
As for powdercoating, I know someone who does it...but I lost all his info. Pm tongwoo and ask him for the number. The guy isn't local, but he isn't that far away. He powdercoated my wheels and did an amazing job for a hell of a price!

Alignment - Richard's Auto Alignment in Salem
Powdercoating - Vinton Fab & Welding
I have used both in the past and can't say anything but good things about them.

Re: Alignment for lowered cars and powercoating?
have you gotten basic alignments? or have you gone in there with custom specs? i used Richards a couple years ago for a spec alignment, and it was decent...But for a lowered car, specially one that is considerably lowered, they dont have the means to correctly align it. I know someone with a slammed car who went to them a couple months ago with custom specs, and it wasnt even close when it was said and done.
