What if I buy some 4" bend pieces or something . Actually isn't the exhaust a 4" outlet, the piece that goes over the axle, but before the axle it's like 3.5"? I *think* thats how it is on the NBS

To keep the oem-look? You goof. Also to keep the noise as far back as possible without actually going to a rear-dump.

Side dumps do looks sweet, I just dont want to get a headache after driving it for 15mins. I'm pretty certain side-dumps would be rather loud.

You probably need to buy a downpipe and you could buy a tailpipe (for over the axel). If you buy both of those, you may as well consider buying a whole system.

If you dump ahead of the axel, that wheel and corner of the truck will always be black.

A whole system costs 400$+.... I can buy the materials and labor for much cheaper than that.

I was thinking about how the rear of the truck would always be black though. I'm not digging that idea too much.
