i think the only hard part is getting the putty to a nice uniform pattern like the rest of your wheels.

the rest looks pretty easy to me

the only reason i haven't done it yet is because BMW won't give you the color. i don't know how wheel shops match the color, but nobody sells one that matches. the only one that comes close changes color later on which makes you go FUUUUUU

wow i don't think it's worth 2K. And I don't think that replacing the gasket will fix the problem. I'm sure other things got fugged up and I'm thinking the entire head has to be replaced maybe
