Shop says Rear Swag Bar links torn and Tie rods torn
Got a post purchase inspection and shop informed me that I need to replace front sway bar links and replace tie rod ends and is charging me
Part: Sway Bar Links, $299.60
Labor for Sway bar: $199.96
Tie rods: $1206.40
Labor for tie rods: $249.95
Alignment: $259.95
I have attached images of the inspection and I was wondering if it is worth replacing the entire units, I'm also quite surprised by the price they're charging me for tie rods. Would love any advice

You didn't have the car inspected at all ahead of purchase?
Regardless, nothing would surprise me for pricing around fixing these cars. A set of new badges for one of these things is like 400 to 500 bucks. I was thinking of getting a new set to put on after my car was fully PPFed. I happily accepted the fact that my installer was willing to re-use the existing badges (some of them will not do so) ;-)
The price on something silly like this really brought into view what real parts would cost...lol
Don't quote me on this, but what you've listed there for prices doesn't strike me as being all that bad. I could be wrong though.

I use whatever WalMart was selling over the years. Previously, it was a CRC brand, lately its been Blaster brand (as in, PB Blaster).
