I'm trying to find a front extension for an Outwell Bear Lake 6. Problem is it's an older model and there never seems to be any around on EBay etc.

you may need to buy a tent + front awning combination and then sell the tent on - depends how desperately you want the front awning.
iv done that before and oddly enough, the tent on its own re-sold for more than i expected and therefor the new awning was almost free! lol

I have a 2013 Bear Lake 6 and after looking for months for a front extension, ended up buying one for the Georgia 5P. it was on special offer in Go Outdoors and looking at the dimensions appeared to work - and it does! OK, so it's not polycotton, and doesn't zip on the BL6, but it does clip on the frame and makes a relatively watertight join, also has the added advantage of having a front door, which has multiple options of how far it can be opened. I'm trying to find some photos to show you how it looked, but can't remember where I've saved them!

and another (excuse the mess), but sort of shows how the zip can be closed and how much room you get inside.

Hello, photos not showing

My Bear Lake is the one where it attached with elastic not the zip version. The canopy zips off but the extension clips on with elastic.
