I notice the tips are gone on the stock mufflers, make sure you get some tips on those to push the exhaust out just past the bumper line because from my past experience with mufflers on this car is if you have no tips and the exhaust is exiting right under the trunk, it will be just as loud.
the OEM tips are installed in the car to the glass packs, they just put the glass packs in place of the OEM exhaust.

So, If I plan on installing a less restrictive intake (probably just a K&N filter) and put the OEM exhaust back on, should I still do the glass pack / resonator swap? or is it useless to do that? I dont want to lose MPG really. I dont plan on racing the car in any way, so my performance upgrades will be based on the practical side.
