Do you have to cut the pipe, connect and weld it???
Please let us know how the installation will be proceeded.
The dealer told me that it will be at my door in about three weeks.
I'm so excited now!!!

No welding needed, unless you want to. You cut the existing pipes about two inches from the muffler, slip these on (they come with the clamp), and tighten the clamp. The clamp can not be seen unless you crawl under the car.
Pretty slick.

If you put them on a 3.0, do you need to cut out the bumper openings around the tips to make them fit?

No cutting needed. The bumpers are identical on both cars, except the 3,0 bumper has the "plugs". I punched my plugs out long time ago, and installed the aftermarket tips, because the factory retrofit was not available. Now it is.

So they just "pop off" without having to cut them. Do you need to remove bumper to punch them out? Do you need to remove bumper to install new muffler tips?

Thanks for the great info! Thinking of ordering these tips!!! Just don't want to have to remove bumper.
