Yes and no although it wouldn't void the warranty on the car itself it would void the warranty on the parts you took of. Like to say if you exhaust (factory) was to rust from sitting out in the yard for a year you would be sol on replacing it but if you were to reinstall the original piece because you needed money and sold the aftermarket pieces and the you had problems with the original pieces they would be covered as long as they didn't take a picture of your car or if they remeber you then your still sol. But as far as voiding anything else they can't it's under a law called the Magnos Moss act stating that a warrant cannot be voided due to installation of a similar part unless the dealer or manufactorer offers you that piece for free.
