Been thinking of getting some ABS plastic that matches the fender flares and trying to fabricate some that would look seamless. Not too sure how to work with ABS plastic though.
I did this, but in sheet metal:

If you cut a semicircular strip with the same radius as the wheelwell arch it will lay flat. If you use a straight strip and bend it it will stand out at 90°.

But if the strip is circular but with a larger radius it will form a conic sector at some arbitrary angle.
