I agree the quality and the finish is not as good as the original, but you need to establish where the part is manufactured, with many parts coming out of India etc, with very few Made in the Uk these days, most replacement painted parts I have bought have been refinished if only to colour match to the rest of the bike. Where possible I have changed to s/steel, ie exhaust, silencer, fork seal holders, fasteners and wheels and these parts are all UK manufactured and quality is very good. Another item I have just bought is a rev counter, supplied as new by Ashley Pople, wow this is stunning, so reassuring you can still get good product. Another great item is copper rocker gaskets, again very high quality from the States.
