I know this is an old message, but you mentioned trimming the bottom skin.  How did you trim the skin to remove the small amount and preserve the squareness of the bottom skin?

There has been discussion in the past about oil canning of the bottom wing skin. I do not know if this will be true for all kits but I just installed the right skin and it needed trimming at the main spar edge. It was necessary to remove between 1/32 and 1/16 to get the skin to lay flat. If I had not trimmed it the skin would have butted up against the forward skin and this would have created lots of oil canning. With the skin trimmed and largely using Vans instruction the skin is tight, a small ding here and there but tight. Bruising should heal in a week or so.

Very carefully using your Vixen file. Take a little at a time, cleko the skin back on, remark the area to trim, repeat.

Easier than it sounds.
