It's got nothing to do with your vehicle warranty being voided, ie the transmission/radio/back up camera/ etc warranty.

However, if your modification causes any problems with vibration, suspension, etc, then that has nothing to do with warranty, it is simply your risk. And by modifying the vehicle, you create a 'grey area' whereby your dealer may believe that a specific problem is related to your modifications, and you do not. Even if you are right, it can cost you time and money until it is resolved.

And just in case you have problems, just bring it back to normal before you take it into the stearlership.

Looks good IMO

Lowered looks nice IMO, but I won't do it myself. The pictures are, of course, Lumma kits (ya'll already know my car is Lumma).
