Filing your emblem is going to result in nightmares. Total amount to file is maybe 1mm. It's really minor after you've adjusted the screw and so forth. I only had one do this, by the way. The other was fine.
to each his own, both of my gills were short by 1mm as you can see from the pics i posted when i opened the thread. As long as you are careful, filing the ends of the emblem is not that noticeable either...
