Ok, my older GTS had a DIY flap, so new has to have too:
Here is the starting point: real nice flower-bucket! Right from the nice ladys of the flower shop. As black water-buckets are rarer than white, pink etc, and  is was not after pink flap. And ladys did not want any money for it!

I think that your improvised mudflap/fender extension looks 'cleaner' and visually better than the Vespa-specific one that I recently installed on my GTS, but I suppose that they're functionally about the same.
