My newest vehicle is 20 years old... finding parts can be a challenge. If parts are still in production, I can usually find them for a somewhat reasonable price. But NOS is a completely different story. Sometimes there's a part you just have to have... but $1200 for a set of tow hooks is not something I have to have. On the other hand, it can be worth it to find a good used fender and pay more than you would for a new one because of the time involved in making the new one fit.
