Default Side Exhaust?

Just order my Spintech mufflers and was going to route my own side exhaust set up. My question is, instead of having the pipeshang from below the car in front of the rear tire, is it possible to have the tips coming out of the side skirt in the back almost like the new 06 Eleanor clone? I wanted the set up to look clean, almost like it belongs Im really not digging it when it hangs.

only thing i could think of is make GOOD CLEAN cuts on the skirts to hugg the side tips.. i don;t think ive ever seen a side exhaust skirt for a fox.. a friend of mine has side exhaust that hangs but looks good not hangin low just enough to keep it from touchin anything

Ive seen side exits on a Fox GT once, it wasnt pretty. Thats one mod that doesnt lend itself too well with a Fox. But can it be done? Yes.
