It can be done on the 3.0i as well. There is an old thread from 2007 that explains the whole thing:
The 4.8is tips are welded onto the Y pipes purchased from Pep Boys...
The poster had their muffler guy cut the slanted/stock tips off, leaving about an inch to weld the Y pipes on to. They also pray painted the inside of the Y pipes a flat black color before they had their muffler guy cut the Y pipes to the right length, too...
*** these are approximate areas where to cut the Y pipes... ... and what they look like when installed...
The key is the Y pipes and finding a good muffler shop and person who will cut the Y pipes, weld them onto the muffler, and then weld the 4.8 tips onto the Y pipes. No other tips out there in the market come even close to the OEM 4.8is exhaust look. With the staggered, bigger and wider 20" wheels, the slanted stock exhaust tips looked too wimpy. The 4.8is tips is the way to go!
