I went with the only real option that didn't require getting a different wing... Hot knife to melt new slots and then hit the sewing machine to bind the edges. Fits like a glove now. The slots just needed to be barely wider and they ended up perfectly placed in the gap between the original slots and the bladder.

Looks better that I thought it would by looking at the other picture.
Well done!
Did you just button hole the edges?

I essence, yes. I melted the slots and then overcast into the slot on the sewing machine to bind it all.
