While i haven't done this before, i believe the answer you're looking for
lies in SNAT. It would seem the requirements would be that the traffic needs
to wind up at the right destination (NAT would get you that far) but the
return traffic must also appear to come from the original VIP or else the
source device would not already think it has an open session with that
device. Take a look here:

Good luck!
