I found this set for $1395 through Colormania, which I really dig.

Certainly it can't cost that much to repair mine though and I love the color of mine already.

Wow, those do look nice and for $625, can't beat it! I also read that they will repair small damages before painting them.... and I would assume mine would qualify as a small repair.

This may be the route I take if the body shop wants anything close to that to repair mine. The downside to sending that company all my tins is taking them off (which I have never done) and being without the scoot for a bit.

Here is what I have done for now until I can get another bracket in (notice the paint has already stared peeling where you can see it ). I rolled the whole bracket clockwise so it clears the fender... why oh why didn't I do this before!?!?!?!?!?! I don't want to keep it this way, not crazy about the way it looks but it will do until I get an axel mounted holder.

Yea, that's the route I am going to go. Either that one or the straight one through Dead Creek Cycles.
