You bought just a muffler? If so, you could try what I did back when I had just a Tsudo N1 muffler on a stock exhaust system...

I bought a 6" stainless hose clamp, a short length of stainless cable and corresponding cable clamp from the hardware store. I placed the hose clamp over the muffler, about midway down its length, then slipped the cable through the hose clamp before tightening it. Then I ran the free ends of the cable through the stock rubber mount and secured it with the cable clamp. All of the hardware cost about $10 or less.

Be aware that you will need a 2.5" to 2.25" reducer and exhaust clamps if your muffler has a 2.5" inlet.

I know all of this sounds a little jury-rigged, but it works very well and doesn't look too bad either.

Of course, you can also take your muffler to an exhaust shop... they could probably charge anywhere from $30 to $130.
