Duals under the axel...ghetto??
I did an exhaust like that on my body dropped S10. That was the only way I could get tailpipes out the back. I loved it and I think yours looks fine. Paint it black and it'll be great.
I just absolutely hate the way it looks. Yea it's easier, yea it's cheaper, but you're getting custom true duals. May as well be the way you want it. Besides, if you ever need to drop the rear or change the fuel pump or anything, it looks like a disaster waiting to happen.
I've had mine under the axle for years. I've never scraped, it looks great because it's symetrical, and I have flanges behind my mufflers so that I can run dumped or remove them for easy maintenance. Takes a wopping five minutes to remove mine. Not ghetto at all. Cost effective, flows well, looks great.
we should start a poll for anyone whos bottemed out? anyone? i understand ur axle doesnt bottem out, but it also moves with the suspension. so a speed bump, whole axle goes up seperate from the exaust. but it lifts the whole rear of the car so it wont scrape. what about when one side goes up and maybe the car doesnt lift? the exaust is still hanging down in way of the obstuction but not the axle. i personally like the idea and am curious if there is any report of scraping. maybe just shitty work or certain conditions please list.

I would never do it, but if you like it that's all that matters. IMO, I'd either dump it under the car, run it over the axle, or run a set of those boom tubes out in front of the rear tires nascar style, but that's gonna be loud as hell.
One thing I'd be worried about is the car bottoming the exhaust out at the track on a hard launch, if you run a bias ply tire and it hits the tire hard and squats down a good bit that will hit leaving the line, and could cause the car to get out of shape, maybe even cause it to get turned towards the wall if it hit hard enough.
