1/16" stock, cut across the grain, is glued inside the outline of the nacelle to provide a base for the filler. You can see how much has been sanded away to get the plastic piece to fit.

The problem is that in all the large multi-engine kits from Guillows this structure underneath the plastic pieces is simply too large, and mostly unnecessary. I practically destroyed most of the top to get the correct fit. Even at that there is still the gap to deal with. Someone once said that Guillows plastic is what it is, meaning the pieces do not always fit, but there's little chance that they will ever be changed so the builder should consider that before starting the build. Pissing and moaning about is wasted bandwidth as is the persistent calling of die cut die crunched. Solving a construction problem is far more rewarding than constantly berating it.
