Default Moving CG forward

Hi all,
I'm building a new plane and am almost done, but I'm having a problem. The CG is too far aft. It is built out of Rohacell (really light foam-like substance) so drilling the aft section out won't help much (I've tried). I need about 97 grams in the nose to balance it up, but as that is about 1/7th the weight of the plane I don't really want to add that much (or any) as it will negatively affect the performance.
Does anybody have an idea how to solve this problem?

Thanks,
