Black exhaust tip

So my question is do I need to trim my existing tail pipe? The vehicle is brand new and came without a tip I’m wondering how far the tips slide on if there’s trimming needed? I don’t want it to hang out passed the bumper

That will depend on the length of the tip that you select. Typically you should expect to trim the exhaust pipe.
 
I installed the same tip (EX1011B). Purchased from amazon as 'used,' but it wasn't, just repackaged. Saved six bucks.
I trimmed right behind the flared section with a cutoff wheel. Worked great because I was able to keep the downward slope which helped clear the rear fascia.
There are three clamp-like things built in, I tightened them until the clamp thing started to bend. Nice and tight but may not survive an off-road bash.
I installed it purely for looks but I think it may actually have changed the sound/tone a bit.

This is how it looks:

This is what has to be cut:

No issues with melted bumper skins or vibration with it touching the bumper?

The tip does not touch the plastic, there is just enough room. The tip also is multi part/section: it has an inner perforated section and then an outer steel part, it is not just a simple sleeve. (As seen in the second photo of Cobalt Anubis' post: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/2992466-post12.html )The design may contribute to cooler surface temperatures.
