Don't overtighten and you'll be ok.

I've personally tried this and wasn't satisfied the grip was adequate, and I think this lens really does need a good hood as it is somewhat flare prone. Series 5.5 filters are available from B+W on special order from B&H if you're willing to wait... Sigh. I think I'm going to go down to the home depot and look at O-rings.
