Default fitting front fenders 1920 T

My fenders fit the running board and the irons but have a big gap to the aprons. Someone else installed the aprons so I don't know if they are correct to a 1920 roadster. Does anyone have advise or photos? My other T has perfect fit but the apron looks homemade. Thank you for any wisdom.

Post some photos of what you have. Typically, there is somewhat of a decent gap between the curve of the front fender where it meets the curve of the splash apron. If you show us what you have, we can tell you if it is too big or not. These pieces were not made to have a tight fit like you might expect.
