You may need several layers. I actually have a spare headlight I could experiment with if I was motivated enough to do so. lol
I was trying some stuff out with paper on top of the headlights, just to see how it would look. if you look near the bottom of the headlight, the fairing is about 1 1/2 inches above the actual light, so we would have to make it flush with the headlight. just a thought.

Edit
we could sandwich a piece of Styrofoam between FG to fill the gap too
