He's probably scientifically determined that specific blade for the correct ammount of flex required in the panel. More to it than 'just' a feeler gauge blade, then again, doubt it :)

Yeah, I had one of those too :lol:

I found mine cos my top fairing only had two fixing holes on the right hand side (where its joined to the pan), so I measured up & marked the hole, started drilling & thought "this is bloody hard for plastic", then all of a sudden it gave way & dropped to the floor with about 10mm of fibre glass stuck to it!

The things some people do eh? :roll:
