Rear wheel arch patch panel

I've got a little rust starting above my drivers side rear wheel. I orderd up a patch panel from lmc, and its a joke. It's almost a flat panel, there is no "flare" at all. Anyone have any idea where to get one that is at least workable?

I ended up buying 3 or 4 different panels, and they all ended up being the same.

Where did you get the panels from? The problem I have the panels I bought is there is really no "flare" at the top of the wheel arch. In your pic the flare looks good.
