316i Touring rear box Exhaust,DIY fit where best to buy?

[stephenw]

I am just getting my tourer ready for it's MOT, I got an OEM Lemforder control arm for £51.64 from Eurocar parts, they are well over £100 from BMW Main dealers so I was pleased about that.
I also need to replace the rear exhaust box as it has a hole and one of the brackets is broken, my question is this....has anyone on here ever fitted a pattern part one themselves?...if so where did you get it and was it a good fit? The reason I ask is if I buy from the main dealers it will cost me nearly £300 with all the brackets & bolts. The gap all around the rear exhaust on a tourer is not that great so I need to buy a good part so I get a correct fit with no knocking on bodywork. a german company sells them on Ebay but if they send me the wrong one I can't really send it back.
Does anyone know who makes E30 tourer OEM exhausts? any advice would be appreciated.

I have a complete 316i exhaust rear section in very good condition in Glasgow if you're stuck. Not sure if it is a genuine BMW one but it definitely fits, I can check though.

£60 collected.

Thanks for the offer, but Sunny Glasgow is a bit too far from South London.
