To download the chrome extension from a given id, you could just use like this

var currentEXTId = 'bjclhonkhgkidmlkghlkiffhoikhaajg';    
let downloadURL = https://clients2.google.com/service/update2/crx?response=redirect&x=id%3D" + currentEXTId + "%26uc&prodversion=32;

The above one is the download URL for the chrome extension. There is also a chrome extension which could help you for downloading chrome extension as zip or crx file.https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/crx-extractordownloader/ajkhmmldknmfjnmeedkbkkojgobmljda

Also the code for how its done is available in this Github repo
