Default Dumped exhaust pros/cons?

I'm getting ready to get a dual exhaust set up, and I like the look of the V6 bumper with no exhaust showing. Should I get it dumped after the mufflers? Is there a really bad drone when driving? How bad are the fumes, and are they preventable?

Don't do it! It wont sound good, it's a tiny bit deep and high pitched, only do it if you're running long tubes and catless, or just get turndowns right behind the bumper like the stock exhaust but hidden.

Is it possible to hide them behind the bumper?

Yeah there's a pic on here somewhere but I'd be too far back to find. Just ask the shop see what they say.
