Default Fairing with 7" headlight

Just posting some crappy pics of my bike with a Memphis Shades 1/4 fairing that fits the 7" headlight from a softail. I cut about 3" off top as it has a recurve that makes its look like an Alien skull.

The paint matches, just the flash is off. I need to tuck the headlight closer to the forks. Just used standard mounting off ebay.

I have been waiting for someone to do this mod to that Memphis shades fairing, looks really good. Not many of us running the 7" bucket, so there are even less options for putting a small windscreen/fairing around it.

I had another 1/4 fairing off a honda, which was when my bike was white. Couldnt match the color, but I didnt like the look as much. That fairing was like $60, and I reused the mounting for the Memphis Shades.

But your right, not many options when it comes to the 7" light.

I have a 18 softail slim. It has a 7 inch light. What is the fairing or part number that would fit?

What did you use for the 7" headlight? I've been thinking about doing that.
Bigger is better right?
