Anyone know any good places to get a "near OEM" back box?

yeah i've had it on the car a couple of weeks now :) the only thing to mention is as you can see the stainless tips are just tack welded in a couple of places which means the exhaust can sound a little blowy, i'm gonna get someone to weld mine all the way round at some point, but apart from that it's great :D

I should have gone to Euro parts as they have a near OEM ones for a fraction of the cost vw charge (hard to get hold of vw ones btw)

euro parts ones come with the chrome tips

I wish I had found the one on e-bay - I ended up going OE from the dealers. Even with a massive discount it was close to £140 - ouch!
