Am after a good quality grey floor kit for my li special. Ive noticed full set from scooter restorations for £40. Anyone bought a set or recommend from somewhere ?

Ive already got casa end caps so could just buy the rest but tends to work out dearer by the looks.. Cheers.

Cheers victor . I was in work today and ended up phoning scooter restorations and ordering the full kit. Needed some side panel handle roll pins as well and wanted them delivered ready for my next days off :)

Typically i didnt realise i was watching scootopia set and got a ebay reminder on my phone not long after .

I'm sure they will be fine, the ones I got were from scootopia/casa a year ago but it seems as if they are now being reproduced using new machinery with the innocenti logo :)

Interestingly enough scootrs are proud enough to put their logo instead of the innocenti logo on their items...

The floorboards to be honest is one of the better scootrs products I've received, with many others being ok but not more.

Please post some photos when they arrive so that everyone knows what to expect from different retailers. Scooter restorations is probably my favourite UK dealer, always receiving top quality items and service from them, so obviously curious on this item.

ok, heres the pics of my new and old floor runners, the light grey are the old ones.

the new ones are casa and have a bad spot on each one where the mould was injected by the looks, whereas the old ones dont,

i am seriously considering cleaning up the originals and using them, it depends on which ones match the casa grey body kit ,

As you can see on the photos I posted above, that's exactly the same problem I had (poor moulding, colour mismatch) and mine were returned to scootopia.

Seriously, and I know I'm swearing in church, the scootrs ones are much better in terms of quality and colour matching.

Havent seen the other italian "innocenti" items yet but on photo they do seem great...
