Default exhaust manifold gaskets

My stock MLS gaskets are in bad shape. The 3 pieces had fallen apart from one another and I'm not even sure I had them back the way they were. Anyways, they seem to be working fine now. Would there be any issues reusing these with headers or should I pursue a new set?

If they are that bad get new OEMS, or just clean them up and reuse them again..

Do you have a NAPA by you or something? I just bought a set from them and they look just fine IMO. Is there really that much of a difference? I couldnt tell.

WTF is MLS? They looked just like the stock gaskets, with the 3 layers if you will.
