You should be able to leave the lowers unclipped at the back and make up a small spacer (usually about 10~12mm will do it) to space the bodywork out from the mounting. This should save cutting the fairing.
A small alloy plate 50x20x2mm with 4 holes in to secure the back of the fairing sections finishes the job off properly, but isn't totally necessary. You can even tap the holes and use OEM Honda screws if you're really anal about it, and no-one will ever know.
