Yes, the market for true originality is even smaller. Most people want the correct look but 'improved' design if it's possible. I have fitted NOS parts to my car over the years with other folk incredulous that I have actually made the car 'worse' in their eyes. 'Worse', maybe - but more original. Most folk don't understand that mindset. Fair enough to the remanufacturers, I suppose - they won't last long if they ignore the majority of their customers. The agenda is different.
