when you remove your inner fairing you will see they are easy to reomove. I did not paint mine and they were not noticible.

if you are referring to the 3 buttons that run down the each side on the inside of the faring, yes they are caps that cover the bolt holes needed when adding the fairing mounted wind deflectors. cant help you as far as painting goes

Paint over them, everything will match perfect then, if you go with fairing wind deflectors latter they are covered up by the deflectors anyway.
