Yeah, they all shrink and by the time they do, you have
thrown away the scraps that were left over from the
original job.  The solution is to buy more clips and find 
a friend who is restoring a GT6 or Spitfire and try to 
talk them out of a couple of inches of their scraps to
bridge the gap, then put a clip at each end of the new
piece.
