While this is true, I imagine many who get an aftermarket exhaust rather than headers first do it for warranty reasons. Hence headers first is not really an option.

Depends on the dealer. The one I went through didn't take any deposit at all. Some require a deposit that they keep until they sell the car. But I imagine it varies by state due to different laws.
