Default Level kit install price

I bought a 2" HBS level kit. A local shop quoted $130 to install + alignment. Is this a fair price? Ford dealership wanted $235 to install + alignment. I do not feel comfortable doing this myself. I'm leaving the stock tires on for now as they only have 8,000 miles on them.

I had a shop offer me $100 to do it but no alignment. I ended up doing it my self tho. Not overly difficult. Just takes a day in the driveway with a little help from some friends. I did the leveling kit and rear blocks (to keep the rake, I do a lot of towing and didn't want the truck nose high all the time) the one pic is with stock tires and the leveling kit. Then the next pic is with my 35" s on.

I'd go with the shop. It's a fair price for sure.
