Could be numerous reasons why.
It could be due to aerodynamics, crash worthiness, hard to say, unless someone talks to the designer.
Personally, I can't see it voiding any part of your warranty; possibly, the torsion bars, but don't believe so.

There are many topics on this issue. Do a search under torsion bars.

Don't forget to get the front end checked for alignment. I had mine checked after 2 1/2 turns and the left toe was out a bit. Sure looks fine don't it. It should be the standard look from the factory.

Yea was planning on getting it checked when I take it in to get the speedometer recaled for the new tires. I checked it yesterday with our late model stock car toe guages and it looked OK but I hadnt drove it yet. Thanks for the tip humdoug.

UPS called your order was sent to the wrong location and it will take 3 MORE weeks to correct the problem...
Not really... Can't wait to see the pictures.
It feels great when you drive past another H3 without the torsion bar tweek and they look trying to figure out what the differance is.

When I took it in to have the front end aligned I made sure the tech knew I adjusted the torsion bars for two reasons. 1) incase he needed to make adjustments he knew he wasn't starting from a factor setting and 2) to see if anyone mentioned a warrenty issue. No issue, only a lot of "that looks sweet".
humdoug where in PA u got ur H3????
