Definetly side exit, especially if straightpipes are involved

Agreed...
Side exit is ugly especially with sidepipes plus they are way restrictive.

i don't see how side pipes would be restrictive (not that i think they would look good in this case) my car is going to have a side pipe, it will work really well, and has very few bends.
should look like this.

In many cases side exits are less restrictive because you have less bends for the exhaust gases to run through, plus they're not going as far so they have less time to slow down.
As far as looks that's all just a matter of opinion, personally I love the look of side exits (not sidepipes) on most things.  There's a few that they don't look so hot on, but for the most part I prefer them over rear exit systems.

Where is the hidden option with a fake stock muffler....

I could do that. I could take the over the exhaust pipe and cut them short making a down turn where they'd exit just past the diff. Then put an aluminumized Beretta muffler on the left hand side.

My suggestion is that it is still some what a Beretta, I would say to at least keep one muffler in the stock location and even it out by adding one on the other side.
I think that cutting the ends short and leaving them exit under the car would look really bad when cold or if any kind of smoke would look to be coming out of the entire back of car

Quad (2x dual tips, spaced out. Pro series tips look great)
I've always thought that the dual Z26 tips on both sides of the car would look hot. So something to that effect would be sexy.

I always thought it would be cool to cut out holes just big enough for Z26 tips where the liscense plate would be and have the exhaust go there. But that begs the question, where's the plate go? I just saw a pic of a new Lexus and it had quad tips, two on both sides of the bumper, but they weren't side by side. They were stacked one over the other, it looked kinda cool, but they were integrated with the bumper. I'm not sure they'd look that way when cut into a Beretta bumper.

on the rear bumper i have 6 cut outs... you can perhaps maybe do something with that, would still be in the rear and be very attractive.. not to mention looks alot cleaner than a big ole' mufler hanging under the rear... just a thought
