Looks wicked mate, you have certainly achieved your goal of recreating an early 80s style scooter. Take the panels off it and spend the sign writing money on a chrome rear mudguard and the scooter will be a perfect recreation. Hat off to you sir this is a fantastic job.
BOTAK ITU INDAH.

my mate made the runners for his GP but it was rebuilt with full runners so i had them, unfotunately he's emigrated now.
The tow bar covers are plastic and came from AF's.

can't do a proper link to the covers, but if you look in their online catalogue under miscelaneous it near the bottom of the page. http://www.afrayspeed.co.uk/index-frames.html

i haven't had any problems with them melting
also try Halfords i'm sure they do them, just ask for towbar covers.
