It is kind of an awkward measurement there because it curves and the measurement gets larger as you go forward. About where you have your mark I am at 1 inch and it is 1 1/4 inches on the other side of the tape. Just so you know, that splash apron piece you show in your picture does not replicate the shape of an original splash apron. Yours is coming out almost straight and they are curving and sloping downward in that area, about at my 1" mark.

I reposted below, looking at it wrong.

Hello 31Tudor

It’s a car made up from various panels, so any info is a huge help. Thanks

I believe the wings and aprons are original and from a coupe.
Is it possible aprons are different between sedan and coupe?

Thanks again for your help

I'm sorry, I was looking at it the wrong way, from the side not the front the front measurement is 2 1/4

They are the same splash apron, the outside rolled edge still looks more sharp of an edge than the originals. Might be the picture though.
