Something like the included pic.  I see them pop up on eBay every now and again, but the price always goes through the roof.  I don't care if the finish is crap, I will be sanding it and painting it either bronze or black.  Minor holes are also okay, as I have exhaust-temp body filler available and can find a decent welder.

That's known as a Brooklands silencer.
Maybe that will help you search one out.

I've been on the search for a Brooklands silencer for awhile now, and I can find them from the UK, but it would be really nice to get one on this side of the pond.

no price online and they are in India but they probably cheaper. there is also the velocette type up on fleabay in Delaware but it is used.   I'd prefer the velo type but right now, I'm so broke I can't pay attention.

Chrome was shit, so I painted it with BBQ paint.

It turns matte when heated the first time
