Default SSE: Wing Root Problem... Help?

Hey y'all...
I've been building my second Sig Somethin Extra (first one shot down by radio hit... liked it so much I decided to build another), and I'm basically now finished. I don't know what happened because I checked and rechecked when I was building, but the left wing panel doesn't seat flush now that the wing and fuse are covered. It seems to bow out a little at the leading and trailing edges by about 1/16th to 1/8 of an inch.

1. If I use a zip tie to hold the wings on as I did in the last one, will this affect the flight performance? I kinda doubt it'll be noticeable, but if anyone has experience with something like this I'd appreciate it.

2. How would you fix this if it causes problems, now that the plane is covered and finished and all?

Thanks for the help...
Mike
