Which model manufacturers are they from??? I haven't had this problem with tamiya kits so far and have not had to remedy it. I would advise to dry fit the set up before painting to check for a problem. Its likely to be the thickness of the 'glass' that causes the problem so i think the only way to go about it is to reduce the height of the cage. If i came across this situation i might attempt to lower it by cutting through selected parts with a razor saw. As the saw cuts through the plastic it is removing a small amount so when its stuck back together it will be shorter than the original piece. If u cut through the vertical bars at the lower part of the cage and do so carefully, it should be the same height all around!!! if u dont have one of these saws then perhaps u could sand away at the bottom of the pilars and then replace any locating pins - if there are any?
