Very carefully... I would use a hobby knife. These weird shapes are where you have to use sponge or sandpaper, not sticks or files, if you're trying to shave it down.

It wasn't like an impossible challenge, but I could understand how a newer builder or someone coming in cold would not have a great time. I did have two or three parts snap on me, too, which is not normal.

A lot of these third party kits are fundamentally uncreative in their redesigns, it's just cranking up the edginess and level of detail for very surface-level appeal.
