Ol' Vinny and I get to enjoy a little 'taste'.
Yeah, don't get into a drink-until-your-ears-fall-off contest with this guy!

do a search for Kymco dealers in your part of the country...call them up and ask them to order the OEM fender. I know my local Kymco dealer will order any part I need. Every state has to have at least a few dealers.

I think they are 13.5 grams from description here https://www.bike-parts-kymco.uk/kymco-motorcycle/150-SCOOTER/PEOPLE/PEOPLE_S_150i_ABS_EURO_4/VARIATOR--CLUTCH/228/6/0/228

I tried 12 and 13's sliders on my 2022 and ended up mixing them for 12.5. I think acceleration is better and smoother than stock, but the gas mileage has gone down a bit and i lost a 1 mph on top end. I am leaning toward putting the original rollers back in next time I go back in there.
1MPH-?!
Digital speedo on those Kymcos?

Assuming your dealer can't order?
Might try U.K. Kymco.
Shipping would be fun!

If you're hitting bugs, don't cut down your windshield!  You'll be back where you started!  You'll also be out the $500 cost of a decent windshield.
Also, FWIW, windshields don't increase drag, they just deflect rain and bugs.
$500 windscreen??!
Never seen a $500 screen on a scooter.
Good ones @$150, brackets $80....but most $150 windscreens come with the mountings.

   I just bought the American version of the '23 People S 150i ABS. I really love the scooter. Watching videos on You Tube I saw that in other countries this model has clear plastic hand guards that help protect against the wind. Do any members on here know how I could purchase a pair of these to install on my scooter?

Not until now I wasn't Stig, thanks.  Nearest (Luton) to me at least 2.5 hours away so I'm guessing they would come this far 'oop north!  Handy to know though as I could always go to them?...

The poor guys who own new Vespas in the U.K. and Europe lose sleep over corrosion from the damp conditions.
Vespa steadfastly refuses to apply any 'proofing' during the build process - which would cost a Euro or two and would be dead simple - so, from Day-One, the owners  sweat what is going on inside, and on the belly's of their metal eggs!

If you ride in cold you don't want to cut that thing down either. It will keep you much warmer.  Also, you can find a reduced height windshield  WRS (from Italy) on ebay listed for the People S 125. Fits perfectly on 150 as long as you have the OEM brackets already. It doesn't come with any.
