stock muffler died, what replacement would you recommend?

I have 80K on my Y2K and my stock muffler died (makes a loud farting sound) a few weeks ago.
Now I am contemplating my options. I would like to replace it with something comparable both in sound and look to the stock se muffler.

What muffler would you recommend I replace the stock one with and how much would it cost (parts and install)?

Thanks in advance.

what about aftermarket mufflers? The Cattman muffler looks nice but it's $350...
