The time to make sure the splash apron fits the lower front shroud is duri=
ng the bodywork, before the paint.Mike MacLean

A cross check would be to make sure that the rear contour of the apron
matches the contour of the lower front nose area.=C2=A0 It doesn't have to
be exact.=C2=A0 That's what the beading is there for :-)=C2=A0 But it shoul=
d be
fairly close so that the bolt holes match up if you have some
originals to match to, and -with or without matching holes -=C2=A0 the
whole thing looks right.
If the shroud nose fits the apron, and the parking light half-holes
and the headlight half-holes in the shroud match the other half of the
holes in the fenders it will look right.
Been there and done that.
