Dead Motherboard after reflow attempt.

Hi there,
after an unlucky attempt to reflow my CHECHG04 40 GB PS3 fat, i've got a dead Motherboard now.
My mistake was an uncareful try to remove the IHS from my CELL and RSX Chips to change the compound under the heat spreader.
Well, now a got a dead PS3 with Custom Firmware flashed which was fully functional.
My idea is to get a new motherboard with the compatible Blu-Ray Drive PCB and simply change them.
Unfortunately its not that easy to find an intact CHECHG04 Motherboard with 3.55 flashed onto it.

Is it really that easy to change the Motherboard?
Where could i get it for a appropriate price?
I'm from germany by the way.

thanks
