Lowering springs while keeping the warranty?

Hey everyone ...

I was wondering if 1) Gm sells lowering springs for a '09 SS T/C sedan or 2) can i get some installed and keep my warranty ...

I haven't done a full forum search .. but i think the question is one a lot of t/c owners ask themselves ..

Thank you in advance for responses !!!

if you put springs on all your voiding is your strut/shock warrenty, you only destroy what your mods effect. You keep your powertrain, swaybar, ect. warrenties.

Last time I had my car in, the first thing they mentioned was the aftermarket springs.
