Default RE: Tiger2 main gear

I used an old fiberglass landing gear from an ACE Bingo (40 to 60 size) I think thats where it came from anyway the mounting plate sticks out 3/16ths on each side. I covered it with a self stick monokote trim sheet it matches the plane very well HOWEVER I think it will bubble once it get out in the sun. I have the plane almost finished exept for the engine and fuel tank.
Now the bad news the right aileron is completely unusable it is so badly warped along the leading edge that when it is placed against the TE the center touches and the ends have a 1/4in gap on both sides it is also warped along from end to end.
