Hack saw and then weld the new tip on.

Well, if you have purchased those tips that have screws to hold them on, you can do it yourself.
It'll just suck.

Bring it to a muffler shop, they can weld them on in no time at a reasonable rate and they will look great. There is a tread here some where about a guy who did it with MegaFlow tips and it looked really good.
