Adjust Valve

Can anybody suggest a Honda dealership in the Bay Area or San Jose area
that has a good price to adjust my 2011 Fit's valve?

What is the normal fee to adjust a valve for a 2011 Honda Fit? (Honda dealership)

Thanks

About 60 minute end to end.. If a decent mechanic does it..
Took me about an hour and a half.. You don't have to remove nearly as much stuff as the manual says. But even if you do its mostly light and you only have to remove the upper half of the intake.. Even if its 2 hours 400 bucks is rape..

You don't have to take off all that windshield wiper plastic and you can still reach everything, including the spark plugs?

Edit: This was a question, not an assertion. I'd like to know the answer, since I have not yet done a valve adjustment on a GE.
