The quality of the leftover NOS parts nowadays is nowhere near what the originally installed parts were. And NOS sheetmetal that was made near the end of the die's timeline is not nearly as crisp. So just because something is NOS does not mean it's the best piece available. Some repo stuff is better, some repo stuff is the same and some repo stuff is junk. I have no problem with repo if it fits correctly and does the job. It's discussions like this where people have tried the different pieces can offer their opinions to the quality that help make the parts better and inform us what to avoid. Good discussion, no reason for anyone to take anything personally.
