I asked the guy about the subframe. He said that when they do it they mark the position of the bolts and mounting wholes and everything. I think it's going to be alrgiht

I smell "BS" in a comment like that... I know from hands on of actually working on the car.

The alignment bolt holes of the subframe are WAY bigger than the bolts that hold it in place, there is a TON of slop. Secondly, there are washers that freely float on the lower side, so if you mark the washer and they move, then what is the validity of the mark? there is NONE.

Get the car aligned, or deal with it when your tires are wearing funny.

Here is a picture of the front lower subframe off of the car, I'll take another real quick and show you the size of the bolt in comparison to the subframe.
