For instance, this here is the side skirt piece on the HG M1 Astray. If you don't attach the ASS hilt to it then you're left with a huge gaping hole in the skirt that's glaringly obvious. But if you stick in a piece of circular runner and file down the top to (reasonably) match the angle of the surrounding surface, then suddenly your side skirt piece has circular panel lining instead of a huge hole that you can see through.
