I think I trimmed most of the excess from the outboard end. I can't remember if I trimmed any from the inboard. The bolt at the inboard end has to be flush with the flange after the bolt is bonded in, so trim carefully on that end if you have to. I believe the clearance between the flap and aileron is mentioned in the manual, 3-5mm I think.

I had to reduce the outboard length of the aileron, and it reduced the flange size for the closeout to the point where I wasn't happy with it, so I cut it out, the closeout, and rebuilt a new one.
