If people would stop cobbling our cars together with duct tape and the likes, our values in general may stop declining.
Take care of it right

Drifting
paying alot of money for a common part in a non critical location is retarded. Anything that can provide the clamping force required to seat the gasket and holt it there is fine. On the example of the rear tower gasket; got 3 mid grade (less prone to snapping than high grade, easier on the casting) bolts, washers, and lock washers at the local Ace hardware. Cost a few bucks total. Still holding fine.

One a regular retail production day it's $114-$160.
On a sucky wholesale/OEM production day it's $57-75.

The middle and bottom quote cost me about $8 in parts, and take about an hour each.
So, I prefer doing the job at the top when it comes to $$, but it's such a pain in the ***.
