I have "Historic" plates for my Mini so I don't need to get an emission for my car so I can't give you suggestions on specific exhausts to help pass German standards (I would assume to be more strict than in the US).

But, still try sites like MiniMania, 7ent.com, there is also Minispares.com they are in the UK and seem to have fair prices. Not sure what the shipping would be like for a full exhaust though...

I agree with JohnW ... MiniSpares in the UK has the best prices around. Plus, the UK has a strict MOT, so you're more likely to get an exhaust which will pass inspection.

there is also Mini Sport USA. They have great prices. They set it up for the people in the U.S.A so I don't know how it would work for you. You can contact the U.S.A. rep.

I think most exhausts ordered in the US have come from the UK, so I think you should start there and avoid the middle man and high transportation costs. I like Minispares myself.

MiniSport USAis a sub division of MiniSport in the UK. it never hurts to give them a call.
