Like I said before, it will cost less than taking care of leaks later.  If it's
just cosmetic, then why risk the leak?  Some folks have reported a keak after
doing so and that's not close enough to 100% for me.  I've got an 87 with
molding that's not attractive, but it's staying on.  IMHO, YMMV, etc.
