Estes Space Shuttle Columbia Build #1385, Part 11, Body Side Fairing Gluing

Interesting - 

The face card picture (of an pre-production build) doesn't show the cardstock sides overhanging the front and onto the nose cone.

Bottom flap is glued on first -

The bottom long flaps are sharply folded in and are glued onto the body tube. 

Try to keep the length of the fairing straight and at a 90 degree angle to the flat wing. 

After the bottom flaps are glued and dried - 

The rear side tabs are glued onto the body tube.

Apply a glue "skin" (it doesn't take much) down the top edge and press down the sides, leaving the rear tabs open.

On the left, you can see how little glue was used on the inside of the top edge. Smooth it out and press onto the tube. 

I used a burnisher to smooth out the sides of the fairing where the glue made contact.
