How much play in the Aquia's rough-in?

I'm in the process of remodeling my master bathroom and have a Toto Aquia on order for the toilet. That's not an issue, I'll use that no matter what. The issue is that the rough-in is 12" and I'd like to install wainscoting behind the toilet.

My plan was to put up paneled wainscoting but that would decrease the rough-in to 11 3/4" and 11 1/8" at the baseboard. If that won't work I could install beadboard but I believe that is still 3/8" thick.

What say you? Am I OK to install the wainscoting behind the toilet?

From the center of the drain, to the wall, 11-3/4" works at tank level.

You have plenty of room for the molding.

I don't know why I put 11 3/4. Should be 11 1/4 and 105/8 at the baseboard.

Would it still clear?
