I wouldn't put lowering springs as a $200 mod, because you need an alignment afterwards

haha good point, but don't you need an alignment at some point anyway?
just a thought and curious to know, when you take your car for oil change at dealership, can you ask for an alignment for free?

You can ask, but they won't give it to you

Are you confusing the alignment with a wheel balance maybe? Wheel balance's are pretty simple, and they might throw that in, though I haven't seen a dealer that has yet. But an alignment is a little more work.
