I wonder whether the 23i backbox twin pipes are the same spacing /diameter as the 20i?

sorry don't know, E89 wasn't even on the list but two other BMW's were and someone had fitted them to an X3.. so for £18 I took a gamble. Replacement genuine BMW ones were just under £90 for the pair

Yes I did a similar trick but they didn’t quite fit they were about 3mm oversize ...so have a spare pair now..

I made a simple bracket that bolts to a bumper mount. Two lengths of exhaust tube welded to bracket.
Then just sawed the the cut out, after tracing off the left side.
Gives it a proper balanced look.

I am slow! Just noticed that you have replaced the whole bumper then ? Have you still got the one in the top photo ?
