Default giles wing

im building a great planes giles 202.. it's my second kit build. i just finished framing the first wing half and now notice that when i sit it on a perfectly flat board, it is up at the tip about 1\16 of an inch. i am going to try to get it dead flat when i sheet the top of it after joining the two halves, if that doesn't work, i can try twisting it when i cover. now, if i were to fly the plane with a 1\16 inch warp in the wing, just how bad will this be? if need be, i will order new ribs and stuff and rebuild the wing, as i want this plane to be trimable.. and as precise as it can be. and this just plain bothers me.. i want it PERFECT!
