Depends on the quality most DIY stores supply acrylic baths with their suites which I am not a fan of. I bought a Nabis 1700 x700 steel bath and nabis vanity unit with hand basin and push button close coupled toilet for around £350 at Plumb Centre and I think it's worth the extra for the...

You could try the pipe lagging with a foil outer, I think Kingspan make it and rather than being your conventional spongy lagging it is more like hardened expanding foam

I know you can get 4" downpipe in brown so you should be able to get it in black try a drainage centre
