>> The lights are large enough so that they don't mount flush with the
wingtip surface, whether you have an access panel or not.  The result is
that I need a gasket or filler between the light and the wingtip. <<

Why not machine off the convex portion of the wing-tip access panel and
create a flat surface with 3-BID on which to mount the light?  That would
be much cleaner than trying to fair in a raised surface to accept the light
and eliminate the mess you might wind up with by trying to form a gasket. 
Just a thought......
