I bought a used scooter and I believe that they changed or added the front blinkers. One side got smashed so I'm looking for a new cover for the left side. The right side has imprints in it (see photo). Any idea where I can get this part?

This is a good opportunity to buy a wiring harness from Scooterwest to delete both blinkers (if local laws allow of course).
Would be cheaper too..... |

But if you insist on having the US blinkers, and don't want to fork out an arm and a leg for one, Harley Davidson used this same assembly on some of the sportsters. It was also on my Moto Guzzi, and I ended up getting it from HD because I didn't want to pay Piaggio for gold plating without actually getting the part gold plated. It was like $9 vs $70, absolutely crazy. And the part is made in Italy. Walk it in to a HD dealer, say it's for a sportster, but you don't know the year, and they will likely track it down for you. If you say it's for a Vespa, they will likely shrug and tell you to go to the Vespa dealer.
