wierd muffler noises

well one day i was on my way to an auction and i went over a small cueb and i heard a loud clunk and after that i got a sporty sound from my muffler for a while and then it got worse raaspy noises everytime i accelerate its horrible. Do i need a new muffler or did something just come a loose and is rattling around in there its horrible. If i need a new one any suggestions, i wish nismo made a universal muffler but anyways thanks.

Your muffler bearings are probably way out of tolerance and need to be completely replaced.
