My bodyman asked if the 73 Torinos had any kind of gasket between the fender extensions and the fenders.  If not, he was thinking about making some out of real thin gasket material, he was concerned about vibration causing the edges to rub.  Anyone do this?

I found some thin material that we may try, once we get it cut and sized we'll see if it will work or not.  Thanks for the responses.
