[OM] flare with 28/2

i recently bought a MC 28/2 for a great price, but part of the price was a front element that has quite a bit of rubbed off, or scratched coating. the photos are wonderful, but the lens seems prone to flaring... much more so than the other MC zuiko wide angles i have.

so my questions are:

1)  is this lens normally a flare prone lens?
2)  should i just find a good hood for it?
3)  or for the $40.00 i've heard, should i just replace the front element?

like i said, the lens takes great photos, but the flare is bothersome. and as i shoot into the sun quite a bit............

any suggestions?

thanks, james.
