You need specialized tools to pinch a sleeve and they're expensive. You can send it off to a guy on this forum and he'll do it for $15 (I don't remember his name, it's just something I've seen in his forum sig). There are other people also on this forum that you can send it off to.

One of my local hobby shops has a modding and pinching service - they have the good tools for it. It's $20 there. Maybe call your local hobby shop and ask if they can do it.
