I don't know if they will fit, but Quad City Challenger had PVC fairings for
my Challenger II. I bought the plane and they had them . You might want
to check with Quad city. Good luck

I made my own out of foam, carbon fiber and S glass.
Michel (Norway) and a friend of his from France
greatly helped with the design! This list is great!
Anyway, very light, but more effort. Gained 10% in
speed! The carbon fiber adds stiffness but is not
impact resistant (NASA-pay attention!) The S-glass
and West Epoxy made them quite hard. I think the
whole thing weighs 7 lbs, but I estimated up to 40 lbs
in additional lift and a hugh reduction in drag.
They lift themselves, stiffen the strut and make you
go faster. A gain all around, except you will float
until you get use to the drag reduction. 
Fairing profile available on request.
