Tom,

I don't want to give you my measurements since the car I have here has 
had the inners replaced. I did want to tell you how much I like the work 
you are doing. Keep at it, it looks great! I personally really like the 
Damson on a TR6. Looks very sexy when all done.

I notice there's a raised boss stamped in one place toward the aft side of the inner fenders; does one set of buffers go on this? Finally, does the flat bottom side of the buffers go all the way down against the fenders, or are they "raised" to some degree?
