My responses are based on my experience with the shroud from Moss which
comes already riveted together....

Can't answer which is correct. I painted the shroud body color as ISTR
seeing that that was correct.

On the Moss version the center section was riveted to the L & R panels
with 3 rivets on each side of the center piece. Do not recall a straight
piece as you describe.

On my car it was held formly by just being jammed around the radiator,
really a very snug and accurate fit. Only thing holding it are the 4
screws at the bottom...

I found 4 holes just where they needed to be on the "floor" (bottom) of
the apron opening. They are angled in (front to back) and hold the shroud
right against the wheel wells.
