yeah, just extract the rom from the installed game. You need to use a FTP program to do it. Find the right folder and inside is a zip file labeled rom. Copy it to your pc that way. That's how I do it. :P

It should be possible to download a copy from NUS with the usual PC tools, backup your original ticket from the console, and combine them; however I am not sure if it is possible to do with the currently available tools (though it would be a relatively simple mod, if they are open source)

Or maybe it's as simple as downloading it and swapping the .tik in the installable folder?

Sorry for the stupid question but how do I get my original ticket ?
You will need to know the game's titleID (you can help yourself with the list in SystemConfigTool, or with the Haxchi compatibility list), then there's an homebrew called Tik2SD that exports tickets... then, I don't know what to do next - never extracted one, but I know you may have to hunt inside the dumped files to find the right one
