Check alignment
Make some alignment marks on the gear leg fairing as you have it set with the string alignment method. Next loosen the gear leg fairing and install the intersection fairing where it fits nicely to the fuselage. Recheck the gear leg fairing alignment and see what the difference is.
I've set up a few planes with the Fairings etc intersections fairings and have found that the fit is pretty good. There is simply no way that every fairing will fit every application perfectly.
In a couple of cases I've had to lightly heat the fairing and ply it to a better fit. I will get it as close as possible and then use micro filler and epoxy to get it to final fit.
