Default Cross under pipe alternative?

Is there any after market exhaust pipe manufacturer who makes pipes for Ultra which do not cross under the frame but wrap back up into the frame? Can't stand the look of the bike with this new design.

I've heard that the 2009 pipes will fit 2008 bikes,
Haven't heard if the 2008 pipes will fit a 2009.

Bub 7 true duals for 09's are like that. They take the more traditional route.
