You need to get rid of those black tips by pulling them out and weld the 4.6/4.8is tips to it.

Uhhh ... I believe the answer is .... you need to CUT them off!

WHAT COULD I USE TO CUT THEM WITH OUT BREAKING SOME THING ELSE

You need to use the hammer and tap them out

Go to a muffler / exhaust shop with your new tips and have them cut off the tips and weld the 4.6 on.

Do it yourself and regret it forever. I say that because you're asking questions, so don't try and do it yourself. LOL. Pay the $60 to have a shop do it.

I'm not familiar with your model X. Does it have front and rear air suspension? If so, here's probably your best option:

For the spacers, need more info. Wheel size and offsets. Tire size too. I use H&R spacers. They make different kinds and sizes and very good quality.
