Hi Matt, sorry to say you've bought the wrong panels mate, the type you need have no recess in the pressing, so you'll need some like these....

Best of luck with the scoot!

Thanks for the info. Does the recess cause problems/clashing? Or is it that the Italian scooters just don't have the recess?

Thanks
Matt

Yes mate the Italian ones just don't have the recess, and look much better!

Matter of opinion on looks. If you fancy getting shot of them, let me know. Cheers.
