TR2/3/3A New Splash Guard Installation

I am restoring a 1954 TR-2 Long Door and I have gotten to the point of installing the Splash Guards at the front fenders. Sadly, I threw away the old ones, so not sure how the pieces go together. I know the long plate has to be bent to conform to the curve in the inner fender. I tried to look for a pic's of the installation in one of my Pinterest Files, but couldn't find one.

Other then the long plate, with it's holes, I have a rubber piece that goes somewhere on the top, and I have a metal retaining strip; and the attach bolts.

Can anyone solve this jigsaw puzzle for me? Would love a pic as the Moss catalog was no help.

Sorry, I don't have any good photos. But the flat rubber piece should be trimmed to fit as snugly as possible against the top of the inner and outer fenders. Then mark and drill so it can be pop-riveted to the top of the large flat piece. The rectangular reinforcement goes on the other side of the rubber. The whole idea is to seal the bulkhead (where the bolts go) to the fenders as securely as possible.

Thanks Randall,

I'm trying to understand your pic? Is there something that bolts into those two threaded holes? I don't see the rubber piece in your pic?
