Others have created this with various amounts of success (or failure). The biggest problem is the short distance between the rear axle and the future outlet area in the bumper. Also, the exhaust is hot. Many have found that they melt the exhaust shrouds, in the conventional location, after installing new catback exhaust systems. The shrouds needed to be trimmed to provide more clearance.

There is a rotor shaped exhaust tip available that would look great for just such a center exit catback exhaust system.
