Just got whole exhaust system replaced. Mufflers now sit at a 45-degree angle. Looks awful. Welded. What can I do?

Hello,
I am assuming it was done at a shop. Best option would be to have them adjust it.
If they used certain style of muffler or mounting bracket it can make the exhaust to be at an angle. Which may or may not be adjustable.
If you would upload some pictures.
Let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
