There was some sort of dispute with Porsche so for the past 4 years or so it has been increasingly hard to find the aftermarket TRW version with the Porsche logo ground off.

Did a little research. ZF Friedrichshafen purchased TRW in May 2015. Apparently selling cheap aftermarket in direct competition with their own expensive Porsche parts does not fit ZF's marketing strategy in their quest for world domination. Bummer.
