Default cant go over steep speed bumps because of my resonater

on my new magnaflow cat back on my 04 civic lx, the resonater sits pretty low

when i went over a speed bump i heard a little thud and i knew right away it was my resonater. I cant lower my car no matter what because of it, and thats fine with me, but i dont wana go over speed bumps at an angle : (

I read another post and he said the shop fixed it for 30 bucks, but im wondering what i can do to fix it. I think he also mentioned the u clamp was upside down, and i think mine is too (friend installed for me) does it matter if the u clamp is upside down, i know my friend wudnt make a mistake like this.

if it is, is it a simple fix? do i have to take off the whole exhaust or just that clamp

if the u clamp can be any way than im fine with that, but if it shudnt be im kind of dissapointed -_-

alright i checked under my car and noticed that the pipes are low because they are not mounted every where

it is mounted at like the start and end but not in the middle, i pushed it with my hand and it moves very minimal but still moves. Anything I can do? i think ill leave it as is
