I picked up a Vespa top case, flat rack, and the matching tan-ish backrest for my wife's new Primavera on SIP. When I added things to cart, it "suggested" that I match the handgrips to the seat as well. I thought that sounded great, but unlike a lot of these suggestions, there was no link to a product. A search of their site and a few others revealed no factory match, and nothing that looked like a good match to me. I was wondering if anyone knows of a good match to that brownish tan seat colour. It's a 2023 Primavera 150 if that helps. Cheers everyone.

I wrapped mine in tan faux leather road cycle bar tape in a spiral, perfect match and cant tell from the real stuff off eBay, YouTube vids show you how to wrap if you have never done it.πŸ˜‰πŸ‘
P.S and when it gets dirty there's plenty to do another wrap.

I think maybe a little darker would be better, but it's hard to tell. It sucks not to be able to compare in person.
