   If the seal isn't already knackered and you remove it with a bit of grace you can re-use it.
   
   When you get it off check it for rips, if it's fine you're quids in, if not just nip down to a motorfactors and grab a new one, about a fiver I think.

   dont forget u need to sand it down first, then give it a good under coat , then a good coat of paint and then lacquer it for a good finish
