There will certainly be a lot of interest going forward on "% content".
My Honda Ridgeline was assembled in Lincoln, Alabama. go figure!
From Reddit, Feb 2025 (discussion of this as a news source is for a different exchange!)
Did you know that the Honda Ridgeline is the most American made pick up truck sold right now. The Trailsport is 75% American made components. With the regular Ridgeline at 70%. Disclaimer - NHTSA considers an “American Component” to be made in USA and Canada.

Well it looks like Vietnam and the US are about to cut a deal. So those seeking reproduction bumpers and side molding from Vietnam should not see a raise in price. I suspect other countries will follow and of course hopefully Japan.
