Default 33 Tudor interior body panel question

Now in the final part of my restoration I am working on the interior. I purchased a complete LeBaron Bonney kit 4 years ago and kept it waiting for its turn in the restoration. So far I placed the headliner, the rear window panels, and windlace. Today I was fitting the rear body panels (the ones that go over and around the wheel wells) and to my surprise the LB kit panels are much larger than the old one originally found in my car (which likely is not an original Ford panel). Photos show the striking difference in size. No way this LB panel will fit. You can see how the old panels fit well. The LB panel is much taller and wider but the overall shape is about the same. Actualy, it looks like this panel is for a much bigger car but on its back it reads "Tudor 33"". Instructions don't say anything about cutting it or trimming it to fit. I will contact LB next week for clarification but wanted some info from Barners. Are these panels for 33 Tudor? Am I doing something totally wrong? Thank you. Manuel
