I have H&R Springs on mine and had no problems with warranty at all, the Dealer was well aware of all my mods but was more than happy to do any warranty work without question.

The only thing that would be affected would be the Dampers as they have diff springs on them to OEM.

The rest of the warranty (assuming you haven't modified anything else) will still remain :happy2:

at the risk of sounding dumb but how would dampers be affected? lifetime shortened? :confused:

Wouldn't be right for me to comment on those as I've never used them.  However, I bought cheap coilivers for my Clio before and by God they were shocking.

I can only advise that, you get what you pay for.

The man is right, you get what you pay for, buy cheap, get cheap, if you want to improve the hanling and looks, then you would need a decent set of coilovers, H&R's, KW's or Bilsteins are what you should be looking at.
