I trimmed the right side weight pretty close to plans and left the left side as is. I believe the plans tell you this. The reason is the trim tab and extra hardware on the left elevator requires a bit more counterweight. After painting, I just needed to drill a couple of small holes in each to balance the elevators. You can't see the holes readily, but you can plug them up with something light, if you want. I just left them.
