Smile grille lower panel dimension. 2 eyed task force

anybody have the bumper off their 55-57 front end right now? looking for the dimension between the lower part of the front fenders below the grille. there is a filler panel to fit in there but I don't currently have one and am mocking up right now.
thanks in advance for the help

I don't have my front end back together yet, but could provide the width of the panel if desired.

Cheers, Jim

I eyeballed it and used some tie downs for mock up. I just ran out and measured and I was only out by 1/4". talk about a fluke.
thanks again.

I measured mine off the truck at exactly 46 1/8" at the front.
