Now you can follow up with light liquid cement fillets down the sides of the fairing joints.
You'll still see some gaps along the edges.
I used yellow glue to fill the gaps and smooth everything out.
Note in the right side picture there is not much glue used. When the fillet is smoothed out some glue will "pool" against the ribs on the low wrap.
Smooth the fillets with a single "down" swipe only to keep the fillets small against the ribs.
When the glue dries and shrinks it won't be as noticeable.
I know - yellow glue doesn't add any strength, it won't soak into the plastic. It's just something to fill any remaining joint gaps. It will stay put.
I only ran glue down the underside center rib of the tunnels.
I didn't want any glue squeezing out on the sides when pressed in place.
After the glue dries, yellow glue fillets were applied down the length of the tunnel sides. Again, the yellow glue was used as a gap filler.
