Know any good mechanics(especially for alignment) in Northern Virginia?

You may get a rec. for Curry's - Don't heed that advice...
Took my UrS6 there for an alignment and a tiny bit of suspension "work". For my efforts I was rewarded with an upper strut mount blowout because they did not put in the cupped washer. The blowout resulted in a dimpled hood. Curry's told me to go suck an egg. Oh yeah, I got a scratched trunk, obligatory grease, and chipped paint around the strut tower where it appears they used a screw driver to lever the strut into alignment.

This place is great and they favor European cars.
I used to go there for alignments all the time. They showed me how their laser alignment is more accurate and how a normal shop can easily make things worse for you.
I've only been to tysons for parts purchases. I wouldn't pay $110 for them to LOOK at my car.

I noticed yesterday that my subframe is out of alignment. Is this a DIY or if not, what kind of cost
