I get the same measurement. My fenders show no evidence of bodywork or damage.

Does anyone have a picture of what the tail light reenforcement plates look like under the fender? Since my fenders are off a sedan, they are missing, and the prior custom fenders didn't have them either. I just need to get an idea of the general shape and construction so I can fabricate something functional.

I couldn't stand that green fender on the car anymore. So I pulled it off, straightening and welded some minor tears along the bottom flange. I removed all the scale rust and mud from the inside of the fender and then shot the entire thing in red oxide primer just to give it something. Then I painted the fender in rustoleums finest black rattle can paint making sure to do the worse possible job I could. When I get back from NZ I'll scuff it and scrape it just right to let the red oxide show through in places to compliment the rest of the car.

I saw those from Will. It will have to wait for my return from NZ as I don't want anything coming to the house while we are away.
