Why does everybody just try to fill the hole, and put up with whatever flare shapes the stylist did? With fiberglass, you want a convex shape for stiffness, and it will smoothly cover the whole mess around the wheel and as far back as necessary. Mold making is more tedious than mysterious, especially for that shape. If the available holes are insufficient, with the right adhesive, you can probably put mounting blocks around the wheelwell without damaging the paint, if you are worried about resale value.
