I'm in the process of a rusteration on my Series 2. My aim is to reuse everything, however the front mudguard is just too far gone, with holes and splits everywhere. I'm pretty sure it's not the original one anyway, as the paint is a different colour.

Any tips on who sells the best replacement mudguard for a Series 2?

They are all fillered to the MAX.... however bought one from BuzzSoloMoto and it fitted well, and painted up a treat (after removing all the original toot and substituting my own)....

+1 on Buzz's I had one off him for my yellow series 2 Good quality limited filler came up well

Just had one from Allstyles and its OK. The fit isnt excellent but just Ok.

Thanks fellas.

Next question - can anyone recommend someone to paint the mudguard (once I've got it) in the standard light grey colour (Dawn Grey I think)? Ironically, it doesn't need to be perfect, otherwise it'll show the up the rest of the rust-bucket! I also need a fibreglass legshield toolbox painting at the same time.

Any recommendations?

These people might be worth a try. They do fibreglass ones. I don't know anyone that's used one. But it's got to be worth looking at.

If you don't want a great finish why not just buy a rattle can and do it yourself? Maybe some scotchbrite and a few handfuls of gravel could add some genuine, original "patina"?

Haha, I did think of that, but I'm sure I'd make a big mess of it!

Hi .I bought mine from scooter emporium .It's one piece pressed steel.I did skim it with filler but overall a nice mudguard and a good fit.

You could leave it to get some surface rust then spray clear lacquer on it to stop it rusting any further

What he said, you can buy the exact matching paint in cans on eBay...
