Default Thicker gaskets??

Is there any shop i can goto to buy really thick gasket material? Possible cut it out into the flange shape that i need it for?

Is it worth buying 2 or 3 normal subaru gaskets and using them on the single join that I need it for??

Basically my x-pipe is still leaking even though Pretige Exhausts said they fixed it, suffice to say im done with that fuckwit Dom so im doing it properly myself. I am however getting the flange plates milled again from Paul's cylinder heads

I need a real thick gasket seal coz the flanges dont meet 100% (they are about 1-2mm off)

could you make a metal plate to go inbetween 2 gaskets, so the metal plate could act as the spacer, and then a gasket on each side to seal it?
