We dealt with it in an iRule, and it's pretty simple:

    set asm_info [ASM::violation_data]
    if {[string compare -nocase "/web/json-y-page" [HTTP::uri]] == 0} {
       ASM::payload replace 0 [ASM::payload length] "{\"response\":\"1\", \"message\":\"Request Rejected. Support ID: [lindex $asm_info 1]\"}"
       HTTP::header replace Content-Length [ASM::payload length]
    }
}

This will replace the default response page that would otherwise be sent.
