Yes, this is what I was getting at. For the time and expense, why build a scale model of a poorly-executed kit of a scale model, when you can just build to scale? I agree that the Semroc BNC-50G is a better choice for profile scale than the plastic Estes nose cone. Good luck with the build... I "cloned" a Centuri IRIS kit, but made adjustments and added a few minor details to make it more of a scale model and less of a clone-of-a-kit-of-a-scale-model.
