exactly, why doesn't someone make a "fork" that goes into the tips?

The fork won't fit with the openings in the bumper, thus, the pipe coming from the exhaust has to be exact center to the openings in the bumper to allow a fork-style tip to be mounted. Which means, the exhaust has to be setup this way running only fork-style tip. Believe me, I wish it would be a true dual openings.

I took my car into a nice exhaust shop to try to get this done. They couldnt do it because there is not enough distance between the end of the exhaust to the outlet in the bumper. It would stick out too far. That said I think it has been done but maybe with modification the the exhaust. Heres some pics of it.
