I see what youre saying. It's not perfect but I've already called it good enough and moved on. I did use a sanding block. But the neoprene grinds away much faster than the cushion rubber and it all flexes. I am an amature.Before you spend the effort on putting the cloth on, I'd correct the transition between the cushion and facing. If you put a straight edge along the cushion nose you should not see any gap of divot between the two. This looks like it has a gap where they meet... or they are not flush to put it a better way.
The easiest way is to take a file and wrap it with sandpaper. Really get meticulous to match the profile of the facing to be the same shape as the cushion nose, and also make sure they are dead flush. If not it really ends up not looking great. It may or may not effect playing but you will be annoyed every time you notice it. You will want to leave the facing a bit large and finish the nose of it this way. It's a bit tedious but very do-able. Just take it slow and remember you can remove rubber but you can't add
Here's the same cushion with cloth.
