I go with Mark on this one,it is possible to get a 90 deg bend but given the diameter of the pipe the radius will be large.
And by thin metal I mean thin.
45/90 deg bends in tube are available from most exhaust suppliers just look on the Bosal website and you will get an idea of what I mean and I think this will be the easyiest answer.

Good Luck.

i started cutting up the original exhaust pipe today, and hopefully will make a downpipe tomorrow, it doesnt seem too difficult as im cutting out v sections and then bending and welding, however im now out of welding gas and tig filler rods so thats another £100 blown . my cost spreadsheet is QUICKLY going skywards.
