Muffler swap from '16 550 to AMG

I am a long time G owner and have recently upgraded our 2006 to a 2016. The exhaust actually sounds pretty good and similar to the AMG, however, the exhaust tips are not extended to appear under the running boards and are tucked under the truck itself. Is the conversion to the AMG mufflers as easy as purchasing the following two part numbers and swapping out with the existing mufflers?

463-490-15-00
463-490-16-00

Does everything else line up the same between the 550 and AMG (cats, downpipes, etc...)?? Do I need any adapters like I have seen for earlier model 500/550 to go to AMG? Is this a 'cut and weld' or 'bolt on job'? I searched all the threads and it seemed like swapping the mufflers would do the trick, but I cant tell how involved that swap would be. Can I assume this would void any warranty if this was not done by MB?

any information would be appreciated, Thanks in advance
