2006 RSX Non Type S Questions
Hey guys. I new here, so I have a few questions.
1. My car obviously has a warrenty. What can I do to it, without it being voided?
2. What is a good company to buy wings/body kits from?
Yea....that's all I can think of right now.
Any information is appreciated.

each part you mod will void a different part of the void, not all of it in general
example: if you buy an aftermarket intake and put it on, it wont void your suspension or something like that.
although those dealership ******** will try thier best to explain how a totally ilrelavent [ sp? i dont care ] mod will effect your engine
example: i went in to the dealership to ask about their stance on the 2nd gear grind of the rsx-s, my car was gettin a little grind. they dont know what to do so they start to blame it on the lowering springs saying how the downforce will tend to effect the the transmission "module"... right..

wings = none or the jdm type r which can be found at your acura dealership or just about any "jdm" site.
as for bodykits, the 05-06 rsx's look good from the factory, unlike some of the 02-04, which desperately needed lip kits. if you want to get a move agressive stance, get a lip kit, not a new front bumper

my acura dealer told me that my I/H/E wouldnt effect my warrenty and i would still have full coverage. they did tell me though if i would lower it, it would effect the warrenty.

Yea, I'm looking at a CF Type R right now. Can't decide if I want to go that route or just fiberglass. What are your opnions?

FAIL!
FIberglass FTL.
The base RSX doesn't need any downforce, it barely makes enough power as it is.
If I were to mod it: tint, drop, some suspension work, i/e/h, CAI, that's it.
As for mods without voiding your warranty - check out the Maguson-Moss act
so dealer can't screw you over.
Props from one Honda girl to the next

I've already got 15% tint all the way around.
I don't want the wing for downforce, I want it for styling.

No, there is also ASpec, those come stock on the ASpec, and that's the style I'm going for.
