anyone find issues with the spark plug gaskets?

Are you asking about the spark plug tube seals on the valve cover or the metal gaskets on the spark plug itself?

Spark plug gaskets are usually not replaced because they are not exposed to wear.

Just be careful to seat them correctly when re-installing the valve cover.

This should cost more than $ 100.00 for labor. So far, two Honda/Acura only shops charged me $ 90.00 and a NSX/S2000 shop said 85.00 and all with warranty.
