Ok thank you I was reading this forum below and he has the same bumper trim as myself and for some reason by eyeballing it I figured the 4.6is mufflers wouldn't fit (I bought 4.6iS mufflers with the oval chrome tips)

Thank you so much I'll confirm on this to be sure, I did order the 4.6iS rings and have them already

I'll be sure to relay this to my muffler guy before he installs, thank you very much
