Hi Robert,
How did you end up with a tail width of 23 inches???
Just curious.
__________________________________________________ ________
The departing angle of the bodywork next to the bumper, which will be removed, is 12.2°.
If I extend this angle and include the "template" curvature, that leaves my tail width of 26.5 inches. This is with a length of 48 inches.
Actually, 26.5 or so inches is probably about the minimum anyways:
1 inch gap + CJ light width (6) + 1 inch gap + plate width (12) + 1 inch gap + CJ light width (6) + 1 inch gap = 28.0 inches
The gap between the outer edge of the tail lights and bodywork kammback edge can be made slightly smaller than 1 inch to get the total width down to 26.5 inches.

If the plate and lights are that close to each other, it may be that the air circulation vent has to be under the edge of the tail anyways just to make room for it.
