So i am planning on painting my rocker cover on my AUII, and i need some advice.
Should i change the gasket when i do it? And what is a reasonable price to pay for a gasket? I am planning on painting it black, and polishing up the raised parts. If anyone has done it before and has any other tips that would be great.

The gaskets are a rubber and if it is in good nick it should be right

Great, so Il just check it, and if it all looks good I can re use it. Does the gasket need to be lubricated before going back on?
