Need advice on finishing rear bumper ends

I have a 1970 911T. The previous owner added flares (RS Style I assume). When I bought the car it had no bumper end caps. I have tried stock end caps and also RS end caps and neither match the curve of the bumper cut. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I might finish the ends of my bumpers to be a bit more aesthetically pleasing? I know they won't look stock but it's pretty much a hot rod anyway. Thanks in advance for suggestions. P.S. The wheels came with the curb rash.

I'd make a template in poster board and then shape in aluminum and finish in satin black enamel. Good luck

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll probably try the template suggestion first and see how it goes.
