Hack saw and then weld the new tip on.

Take it to a shop.

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.
