I'm cheap as heII and this major resto already got me sinking down to hole in my pockets.
The signal lens gaskets are kindy spendy for what you get at 3~4 buck per.
I bought some silicone sponge CORD , about 3 mm diameter variety, got a couple meter roll for roughly the postage cost
( yes I order from Chyyy--nnna for the cheap stuff , ebay search term" Silicone Rubber Cord O Ring Cord White Seal Foamed Sponge " or like wise. )
Probably could have stuffed another mm or few diameter into the groove between the lens & body, and it would show more too.
I like the white band showing and there was a life time supply in the minimum order envelope. Play nice and I may have some to share on PM request.
The extra stuff also came in handy with the LED front headlight coversion ;
I have a JD Speaker led headlight ( jeep / humvee "gubbermint surplus" item ) unit that requires an adaptor ring to fit the BMW headlight shell and their original instructions / light / gasket / ring stack didnt work , so I hacked that TOO
