Anyone know where I could get a plastic replacement front fender. I saw a chrome one on scooterworks, for about $40, but I don't want chrome. My scooter store in SF is charging $40 for the plastic one...is that high? They sold me on a Genuine because replacement parts were plastic, so cheaper, but perhaps they meant cheaper than replacement Vespa parts.
Thank you.

$40 is about as cheap a replacement fender as you'll find on a decent scooter. I'm sure an OEM replacement for a Vespa is $100+. The chrome ones can be found cheaper, but I'm not a fan.
Ordering a replacement via your dealer or Scooterworks is probably the best way to go. For some parts, I'd recommend trying to find a used one off a wrecked scoot but labor for removing a front render will run over $40.
