Default Serious exhaust relocation question...

Ok, I am serious bout this question. I was looking at this car in someones thread:

And I was thinking how hard it would be to do a similar exhaust relocation in the same area as the exhaust of that car, (The mufflers position). I own a 5th gen prelude. My reason for wanting to do that is, one, that exhaust location dosn't hurt anything functionality wise in the car. Second and most important is that you get way more ground clearance because you don't have some huge muffler under you bumper. I had a civic and grew really tired of straping my muffler on driveways and stuff. I'm not sure if anyone has ever done this or how dumb this may be, but its looking like a pretty cool option to me right now. Am I wrong about this idea? If its somehow possible, please let me know the best place to relocate the exhaust to. Also, in the extremely rare event that you know someone that has done this and have pictures, that would help too. If this helps, this is the back of a 5th gen:


And this is a shot of the front for no reason but I like this car:

Of course I'm talking about keeping the stock muffler and maybe upgrading the pipe size in the future.

I actually have low money and a stock prelude right now. Just kinda sizing up what I want to do with it. I didn't think it would cost that much. It seems to me that its just a whole in the bumper and some custom piping must be done to modify the stock one from the axle back I guess. Am I wrong or missing something..?
