Default Another annoying Air Ride question

I've looked high and low and come across nothing helpful, ive installed the DIY kit including viair 98c compressor and monroe 785 series shocks. Everything is wired properly and running great except my front fairing on my 2014 street glide special wont go back on the correct way as the compressor hits it. Has anhone come across this problem and found a solution?

I put the compressor under the fairing but had to mount it sideways on top of the stereo unit I found an area that it would fit and the fairing would go on just keep moving it around and you will find a position for it to fit.
