I had looked at something similar bu the diameters are wrong, I've also thought about mounting a cricket or snooker ball in the end, trouble is nothing obvious works.
Might need to find a metal fabricators and get something turned out of ali Bummer. What about getting a tube that goes slightly up and out bend into shape, that has a smaller tube inside to fit into the ends of the chassis tubing (think "beach buggy front en miniature")? If you do it like that (or similar), you can use a small screw/hex to fasten it in each tube.

If you remove the front number plate holder you are left with 2 ugly looking ends of chassis tube. I've been looking around for decorative items to put on the ends, hence the cricket balls as a suggestion. Hope this helps. Did also think about these Smilie Balls

A quick update on my latest modifications / changes:
Exhaust heat shields now refinished in black powdercoat. There should be a sufficient air gap from the exhaust pipe to stop the coating from burning. I see on the latest MMC price list that black heat shields are now available as a £200 + vat option.
Removed the naff 'hot' sticker on top of the engine, in fact it had already started to lift on one edge.
Made up a battery tender lead to plug into the accessory socket.
Got my factory paint touch up and tended to a few minor paint stone chips.
I have also bought the MMC outdoor fitted cover.
