all sliders that are designed not to fall off when you stare at it will need you to cut the fairing.

Vortex sliders are the best imo and yes they do come in white
You do have to cut the fairing (with any decent sliders), there are plenty of write-ups on how to do it
There are "no-cut" sliders but they are garbage and can easily do much more damage than they prevent

regular sliders...extended gives more torque to the ground so that chance of ripping the slider off and/or breaking the slider bolt/engine bolt off is increased.
