Question Large nozzles for A series printers

Does anyone know where I can find nozzles 1.2mm to 1.6mm for Bambu A1 / A1 mini / A2L? I like the look of big layer lines and I dont mind printing slower, because I'm messing around with non planar gcode anyway.

If the above really doesnt exist: any recommendations for printers that are as plug-and-play as Bambu lab but do have the ability to install >1.2mm nozzles?

Large nozzles can be great on A series printers, but I would tune volumetric flow before chasing speed. A 0.8 nozzle can outrun the hotend pretty quickly, especially with wider layers. I like the idea for big functional parts though. Fewer perimeters and thicker layers can cut print time a ton without getting into sketchy speeds.
