I've recently had a scorpion back box fitted onto my 318i, replacing the OEM system as it was completely rotten.
The scorpion box has a larger diameter and subsequently the original brackets don't fit around the box. It's been welded onto the brackets at the moment as there was no other way to get it on at the time, no going back as the OEM system had holes the size of a fist in the back box with a rather rattly mid box.
Where can I get bigger brackets, or will the 325i system brackets fit the box? It is a twin upswept dtm style backbox.
Cheers
Exhaust bracket too small

You can make your own essentially without too much hassle all you need is two strips of steel that'll go around it folded up at the ends slightly to create an area to bolt it together, you can then if willing just weld on bits from the original bracket that fix it to the rubber hangers.
Or just weld those hanger bits from the original brackets straight onto the box for a secure fix or for a not as secure fix you just need two bent rods that would hook around the rubber mounts.
