A while back I decided it would be a good idea to lurch into a red tool box I had sitting on the floor while putting the GTS on it's center stand. Left a nice deep scratch across the front fender. This scratch, of course, drives my OCD wild. I'm fixated on it.
The other day I had a mobile scratch repair service swing by to give me a quote to fix it. He told me he could fill in the reflector holes for a nice clean look. Bonus!
I happened to have the fender crest removed because I was considering the Rizoma one. Unfortunately it has a smaller footprint and the OEM left a depression in the fender that would not be covered by the Riz. It would require repair.
The repair guy said he could fill the fender crest holes in for a completely clean look. I've been kicking the idea around for a few days now. I've seen photos of fenders w/o the crest and it has a clean sporty look. However, the crest is a signature Vespa design element.
Given the choice, would you keep or remove?
