Default Aero Classic interior limits stick travel

I really like my new Aero Classic interior (I have sportsman seats with aviator side panels) but I have 2 complaints:

1) The glue on the back of the velcro on the side panels has come loose on the pilot and passenger sides and I will have to replace with new velcro. This is where the lower and upper panels meet. Anyone else with this problem?

2) I'm 6' 0" and 228 lbs. Since I added the Aviator side panels, I can no longer get full aileron throw to the left because the panel holds my leg closer to the stick and the stick is using my leg as a stop. I get probably 90% travel before it hits my leg. I did not have this problem prior to installing the side panels. I can still roll to the left OK, but can't get full travel. Anyone else with this problem?

Other than that I really like the interior, it really looks great!

Is that with or without pants?
Interior looks great. I'd recommend cutting a notch out of the legs....
(I have no real advice)
