Rear panel

I know this has been raised many times before, but I seem to have a different scenario. When I trial fitted the rear panel to my MK Indy I note that it is about 15 mm too wide at the top but fits perfectly at the bottom. I know Hellfire cut out a section, but I am assuming that he had a gap both top and bottom. I know that most builders do not cut the panel, so I was wondering what the best way of over coming this problem is

Thanks in advance
John

On trial fitting my rear panel, I found it to be such a slight imperfection that I'll just leave it alone - I suppose it all depends on your fabrication ability (I have none, and if I did, I'd do all the bodywork in ali, a la caterham/original se7en).

a 15mm imperfection is only 7mm either side - you don't notice it on most Indy's.
