Richard. This looks like the stock part that should remain there.
It extends the fairing when the wheel are hanging down in-flight. Removing it adds a bit more drag down there.

The Gear Fairings w/landing lights that were on the plane when I bought it, look like somebody made them in their garage. Fortunately I had a set laying around and replaced the home-made set. I do have a question however, on what looks like and inner shield that was under the gear fairing. Personally I see no purpose for this part, and wonder if it's more home-made junk. I'd like to get rid of them if possible, because they look like crap hanging out under the stock fairing. Please see pictures and advise it this is a stock part that needs to remain in place. Thank you, Richard The picture below shows how that inner shield hangs out under the gear fairing.
