It will fit only if you remove the oem support chasis brace in the rear as the midpipes would hit the brace. You can get away with it but you would need to uPgraded to a hotchkis chasis brace. Best bet is to get an exhaust made specifically for an E93. I was one of the first to get an exhaust for an E93, so there wasnt too many choices. I had that rear support brace out for a while and recently installed the hotchkis brace and it did stiffen the rear whereas without the brace the chasis did flex more, with it on the car is much tighter in the rear

Is there a diagram somewhere for the E93 exhaust system? From the DP's, O2 Sensor, all the way back to the stock mufflers.

Sorry, I did a quick search on here and google images and really didn't find anything...

the only difference from e92 exhaust is the way they bend the midpipe section, everything else is the same...there is a structural brace that goes underneath the exhaust which hits most aftermarket midpipes if there are not made specifically for the E93...Like I said you can get an exhaust made for E92 if you go out and buy an Hotchkis chasis brace which IMO is much better than the OEM one...It better structurally made and also saves weight compared to the original
