Cylinder distortion in Shake?

I’ve had to perform a couple of label replacement shots around a bottle. They have been tracked on in Shake / Mocha and Im using the Warper node to create the bend around the curve of the cylinder. Whilst Im fairly happy with the track / integration, the fact that Im warping by eye means Im not matching the shape of the cylinder very well.
Is there a plugin for Shake that will allow a more realistic cylindrical distortion to be applied to an image?
I realise that the route I should have gone would be to do this in Nuke and try and match some actual 3D cylinder geometry to the bottle, then project the label around the 3D. But I’ve gone so far down this route now Im reluctant to abandon it.
