When I tried to take the sidepanel off the handle came off first :D and in parts you could put your fingers straight through it, the same with the side runner and legshields, looks great in picture but in real life pretty poor that's why it needs a full resto.

Looking at the way that the blue on your original panel has been masked (white bit left at the top), I'd say that it was done by the Lambretta Concessionaires so may well have been 'original' as supplied new in the UK. 156D (Keith) seemed to know a fair bit about it, anyone else confirm?
