I'd think with some cardboard and a sharpie, 1/8" diamond plate from OSH and a couple of good jig saw blades and a maybe file, and finally some carpet tape you could have an interesting afternoon.

That would save explaining to the USPS that you paid all the shipping costs already....

Whatever happened to the DIY ethic, is that why everything is being outsourced - the idonwannadoit syndrom?

I love it too and am seriously tempted. Go to www.ebay.de and search for Piaggio MP3 Alu.
