Exhaust hangar question

I recently put on a set of Borla straight pipes (axle back) and they didnt come with any type of hangar. There is a bracket welded to the pipes but it doesn't come anywhere near the stock hangar position. Has anyone come up with a way to hang this particular set up? I bent some cheap steel and made brackets as a temp fix but they will probably crack from vibration here soon. Any help or insight is appreciated.

For a catback system, there are three hanger points. One point is below the transmission right above the stock H-pipe. There should be two spring hangers that hold the exhaust system here. Then there is one rubber hanger at each side of the muffler (or where the mufflers should be) below the rear bumber. You should have tangs on the exhaust system that fit into these rubber hangers. As I stated, everything should line up fairly well. If it doesn't, you should maybe call the vendor and ask for guidance.
