Can these be ordered separately somewhere? I know a lot of scooters come with them already installed (including my Keeway) but what if you wanted to add them as a modification? I'm looking at this other scooter I'm getting and I think I want some for them too-:)
Any ideas or suggestions, let me know.

I would guess they are probably a case by case thing unless you want to get the metal and cut them yourself. If you had a rubber floor mat it could be easily used as a template.
I have seen them for Burgmans but they come from Japan and are $$$$!
What scooter are you trying to find them for?

A Chinese scooter my neighbor is going to give to me. It's called Xingyue ITA and it's White, very sharp-looking scooter too. I want to get the Grand Vista in White but since I'm just getting back on track financially after being laid off for six months, I don't have Grand Vista money right now-:) soooooooo in looking at the Xingyue, it actually kinda reminds of the Grand Vista (in the front) a little so for this spring/summer, I'm going to just stick with both 150cc scooters and then upgrade next year. I also ordered a white scooter trunk to go along with it.
Here's a pic of the Xingyue. I believe there may be some owners/riders on this board if I'm not mistaken. Almost similar to my Keeway, if you notice on my avatar (floor boards). I think having them on the Xingyue would be kinda nice. Too bad I can't find them in White....white on black would look really nice too-:)

You could probably save a fortune by going t a metal fabrication shop and having them cut you some from scrap.

Do the floor boards round down on the outside or is there a straight edge?

I would think straight edge. If you check my avatar, my Keeway Matrx, they have the floor boards. I want to get similar ones for the Xingyue scooter.

Dragon Custom Scooters have all those mods for chinese and other scooters now. They seem to handle all sorts of scoots. I have also seen some on ebay as well. http://www.dragoncustom.com/How I long for those chrome wheels! Too bad they don't make any for a BV 500  _________________ A Dragon can be unseen or visible, minute or huge, long or short. However,

Wow, your Vino looks really sharp with them. I'll look into, actually I'll look into all those sites and see which one to choose from and what's the cheapest-:)
Thanks to both of you for sending those links. I'm on it. I'll let you know how I make out.

That's ok! I actually sent an email with a pic of my scooter to dragoncustoms. I'll see what they say first.
Thanks for the correct link, I'm going to check it out later this evening.

Ok, someone from dragon customs replied to my email that said that they don't have chrome boards for my model scooter. On to the next link-:)
