    Cheap universal 600*300*76 I think is about the biggest you can fit without major modification.

    Bye for Now!

    Pretty much anything you get for under £500 will probably be identical, so just get whatever is cheapest or in the colour you want (I went for black so it's a bit more subtle)

    You'll also need a selection of elbows and clamps to fit it to the original pipework (see the list in the Staged upgrade recommendations thread, and you'll probably want a spacer kit from @Grid so you don't need to cut the bumper bar.

    Don't bother with one of those "kits" unless it comes explicitly with the items mentioned in that thread I linked. That original bit of pipework you've pictured does not need modifying.
