There was a silver on the lift. Went back to have exhaust adjusted as it rubbing against something and causing vibration. Still not on straight but..Mine is Mellenium

The dealer will ultimately decide on warranty issues. I am inclined to have BPP headers put only once I have a greater confidence of warranty status. Unfortionately Ernie can not do warranty work although he certainly has the knowledge. I do nto race my car. It is an everyday vechicle for me. I do however drive with a heavy foot. I fell a difffernece in how the cars pulls after the exhaust and Vortex. It just wrks better. bKeep me up to date if you find anything definitve on wht would and would not be covered n warranty.

Headers will not void your warranty, but if you have a problem associated with the exhaust system, it may not be covered.

I just had headers, high flow cats, x-pipe and Corsa Sport system installed on my vert on Friday and the only thing my dealer said they wouldn't cover were the high flow cats themselves.
