Forgot to install the gasket between top hat and chasis mounting
I was putting a my strut back on the car and totally forgot to put the gasket that goes between the tophat and the chassis mouting point back in. How bad is this? Can I just leave it like this without it?

Congrats, your car is now .001 grams lighter, and the weight savings probably saved .000001 seconds off your 1/4 mile time. They are indeed worthless, but I'm guessing the noise only comes if you clean both surfaces perfectly, a little dirt and grime will substitute for the 'gasket' perfectly.
