HI guys, were doing the Mock Up of my 34 Ford 3W Coupe and i got the propper vinyl covered cloth fender welt in one piece. I did not realise there are other materials available which do not have the correct look and thickness (thick plastic) but luckily there are guys with knowledge out there.
I do not know into what length to cut the fender welt!!
Is it 2 pieces /lengths:
1) 1 piece from the end of the front fender, around the bottom tip of the grille and to the opposite side end of the front fender
2) 2nd piece from the beginning rear fender along the rear body / rear splash apron to the front end of the rear fender

or ist it 3 pieces/lengths:
1) 1 Front piece as described above

2) 2 seperate fender welt pieces for the rear fenders, beginning to end of each fender

I believe the running board has its own rubber strip / pad on the fitting surface between running board / body.

3) Does anony have the exact measurements and thickness of the rubber pad / strip??
Anybody selling them ?
Thank you for the help!!
