 The wider end goes at the top.

First rule is to create a template out of cardboard.  You want to use the wide part at the top.  Cut on the small side.  

   

I went through two cardboard templates before I got the cardboard cutout right.  Then I wrapped the cardboard around the fairing and transferred the cutout with a black marker.  I cut larger and trimmed it down to fit with a dremmel.    

   

I guess my RC days come into play here, but mine fits like a glove.  

   

Put some rubber edging around the top of the fairing so it doesn’t scratch the paint.  

   

Use the hinge method described by Arion.  I thought I would be able to secure the fairing with Velcro, but the Velcro is not strong enough to hold the ends together.  Now I am going to have to go back and repaint them unless I come up with something else.  

   

Use the hinge.
