Default Adding weights elegantly

I have always had diifficulty in balancing my planes with lead weights. The real difficulty is not in the balancing act itself but in figuring how to attach the lead weights to the plane. Do I stick them on or do I cut a hole and drop them in and patch the covering, etc. I just would like to find out how you guys do this. Is there a good and convenient way to do this without damaging the aesthetics of the plane (and aerodynamics too) or it is more practical to just stick or screw them on ? Hope to get some thought and ideas from you folks out there..............
