Default Nacelle keeps popping out from inner fairing lip

Whats the trick to getting the nacelle to stay tucked under the inner fairing? I have 14" wild one bars and when I turn the bars to either side the nacelle from right side pops out from under the inner fairing lip. Its killing the paint on there. Just wondering if theres a set procedure or way to line that up so it stays in place. Thanks in advance.

Are you talking about the plastic piece that houses the switches? If so, I'm guessing the curvature of the bars are causing it to bind when you turn. You might try just removing the rubber pieces that wrap the bars and see if that provides enough room to fix it.

Thanks for the feedback. Ill give that a shot and see how it goes. I shoulda asked this before I started jacking the paint up. Thanks again for the quick replies.
