Three options:

Buy new from dealer. Probably expensive. You could get it powder coated to make it better protected as the factory finish is thin and crappy.

Buy used. Cheaper but maybe rusted already.

Make something. It's a pipe at the end of the day and you can buy pipe in all sizes with a mix of flex or joiners if you had to. You could easily knock something up but it will be a bit of work.
