It just depends on what we mean by "new." After the long reign of the yellow plastic elbows, Vagias replacements (and perhaps some originals?) were made of a tan plastic. After that, a white plastic. I have encountered tan plastic replacement elbows that were brittle, and just a few white plastic elbows that failed in the birdseye component. Or at least that's the way I remember it. The clear plastic ones are AOK but sometimes need felt trimming for clearance.
