Buttoning lower fairings up??
So since I had a motorcycle never had the privilage to have side fairings well I got some and am ready to button them up. Just one problem, I have never seen one up close so I'm not 100% sure where they are supposed to button up to lol. I ordered the brackets for the bike part #'s

I know the hole with the bolt broke off is supposed to mount to that spot.
These holes I'm not to sure on. The one on the right I think has a bracket that comes down right by the oil pan but the holes don't seem to be matching up by are close.
This one I'm not sure dosen't seem to match up to any of these. So hopefully you guys can snap some pics so I can see exactly how it's supposed to bolt up. I haven't even tried the opposite side yet but if you guys are kind enough I would appreciate it.

So I just went out there and found where most of the bolts go. I see the rear end of the cowl bolts down to where the hex bolt is in my pic already and the rear bolts up to the bracket at the bottom toward the oil pan. Now the weird part tell me if this is normal or not... To get these bolts to align up I had to unbolt the top 3 hex's from the upper cowl. Once I did that things matched up like butter but after bolting some of them down it is a PITA to get it to align up with the upper cowl like I have to bend the hell out of it to make it maybe fit. Is this normal?

Pics of it when the air damn still on. Huge gap not able to get the 2 bottom holes to meet and had to force the top one.
Removed the air damns and was able to force them into place but as you can see the bolts are **** eyed.
I removed both side air damns and checked the headlight can't see anything wrong with the way the headlight is installed. Unless you flip it upside down haha.

The front fairing has the headlight bolted to it. The headlight then lines up with 2 rubber tabs into the front metal fairing stay. The mirror bolts hold the upper portion of it. Make sure the 2 rubber thingys are seated properly with the headlight then your side fairings should match up. If it is not then it will look like what you have there. Hope this helps
