My MP3 doesn't have the l/h or r/h splash guards and I want them and the hardware. They're pricey through retailers, is there a used parts house for this sort of thing?

Check eBay...I think a few are being parted out right now--can probably contact the seller and see if they have a set for you.

I appreciate that, been trying that route but nothing yet. I've found some new ones from scooterwest, but would prefer a a salvage lot or individual.

What am I thinking? I'll post this up in the classifieds, duh.

Australian models, at least at the time I bought mine, were not fitted with 'mud-flaps' or splash guards.
I cut some out myself from a sheet of laminated rubber that had 2 canvas layers embedded in it. There is a name for this product but I have forgotten what it is.
I screwed it to the guards using dome-topped nuts.
The result is 'just like a bought one' at far less cost.

Thanks Maksor, I looked through both sites and never found the splashguards, do you have a price and shipping to the USA?
