Couple Quick Questions
#1
1. Will aftermarket exhaust void my warranty? I never owned a car with a warranty before, so I'm clueless.
2. Does the valve cover have one of those reusable silicoln gaskets? I know my eclipse did, and after seeing a lot of people pull them off just to paint them I assume they do. I don't want to pull mine off to find out you do need to replace it.
3. Is there somewhere I can get an RDTiburon decal? This site is amazing and I want to support it!

Unless they can link your aftermarket exhaust as directly causing the warranty failure, then no it won't void it. Unless they have some clause that says any modification to the vehicle will void your warranty which I have never seen before.
If it's a new gasket you can probably reseal it. If it's old you may be able to get it resealed but I would just replace it. It's probably only $20ish
Red zman may still have some 8" decals left.

Unless you are the original owner, or the car has less than 60K miles and you are the second owner, you have no warranty anymore.
Checking my PM's now.

Then you need to look at your warranty paperwork really carefully, aftermarket warranties are often quite different from OEM warranties.
