EDIT: http://www.ebay.com …_sacat=See-All-Categories - Would it be something along the lines of these ^^ ? I did some research before I bought mine and Kenko is the way to go.

Thanks a lot, I thought it turned out pretty nice but it helps to ask someone else too. I set my aperture at f/7.1 for this shot. I wanted more of the flower bud in focus.
