Default Length of 800 series front fenders?

I am at a crossroads with the new project, and I am wondering if I could cure some or all of my sheetmetal and fitment woes with 5 ton parts.

Could I trouble anyone on the list to put a tape on their 5 ton fenders, and report back? A handy measurement to have would be the length of the top of the fender, as measured on the bottom edge (this is the edge directly under the Tire Pressure stencil). This would be inside bend to inside bend (it's about 28" on the M35).

The measurement doesn't need to be precise, but it would be great to have it within an inch or so.

Thanks
Bob

Thanks much for the reply! Still not sure if this is the solution but it's worth looking into.

Best,
Bob
