Can someone tell me what exhaust this is???

I just bought a 2004 Coupe 5AT. I was poking around underneath and noticed the exhaust is not stock. It is a TD system but doesn't look like anything else I have seen on here. I'm not too impressed with the way it looks, especially the right-angle bend on the passenger side outlet. Wtf? Who puts a right angle bend in an exhaust? Does anyone know what kind of exhaust this is? The are no brand markings on anything other than the mufflers that say "Dynomax" (not thrilled about that either). I suspect that this is a "custom" job but not sure. Other than the f'd up right angle and sorry mufflers does the rest of this system look OK? If so I'm just going to get new mufflers and get rid of that stupid bend.

....and so the mods begin

Haven't even had the thing a week yet and already I'm looking at spending money on it! But I agree, that exhaust looks like a POS.

Consider it gone!

That POS will be gone soon......just need to decide what to replace it with. I've done a lot of searching and I have it narrowed down to a few good ones I think. Basically it's between the FI, HKS, and Stillen. Now I'm just freakin' embarassed to drive around with that exhaust on my G until I can get it replaced. Kind of looks like the beginning of a "You might be a redeneck if....." joke. Oh well, I got the car for $16,500 with 64K on it so I still have some money left to fix it up a little bit.
