Also, do you know of any engine mods that I can perform on my car without voiding the factory warranty?

Thanks......
I'm not one of the girls in here, but I can suggest somethings to you. For the gum, did you try using rubbing alcohol? If that doesn't work, then try camping fuel, or gasoline would work too, just be sure not to rub too hard with it, and be sure to rinse it off afterwards, you don't want your bumper to become apt to spontainiously combust.

For mods, one thing I'd first and foremost recommend, is replacing your stock airfilter (the actual finned paper filter) with a much less restrictive K&N drop-in Filtercharger air filter. It'll allow your engine to breathe a bit better, and can in cases add horsepower as well. Since you are onlyy replacing the filter itself, and nothing more, it won't at all void your warranty. As far as anyother engine mods, virtually anything else WILL void your warranty.
