Can these puzzle joints be used?

I glued a set of side panels yesterday with thicken epoxy. While trying to put them together, they were very, very tight and did not want to seat right.
I got it the best I could and clamped/used weights. I sanded this morning and it looks like I have gone through the veneer in a couple of places trying to get smooth.
Will I be able to recover with these, or should I cut new and start over? You can definitely feel the low area and the only way I think you could repair would be with some type of fairing compound. One side is better than the other, so the better side could go on the outside and would be less noticeable.
Thoughts?
thanks
