Lol, Mine didn't leak too much but it was in the back so on the down-pipe, exhaust etc, it's getting better after 2 days of driving now so I will inspect it with a mirror in the back but think I am good. I used a new OE plastic, but I feel you on the plastic parts as I'm old and remember those days
My old VC with 65K and 12 years old looked pretty good tho. no cracks etc. The gasket had shrunk pretty badly and I believe BMW could find a better gasket by now.
