Probably made the molds from OEM 'rolled fenders. Back in the mid/early 90's, before body kits were readily available, we'd spend hours rolling and stretching the original bodywork to widen it. On my 95 integra GS-R, we widened the front by 1.3" and the rear by almost 1.75". I have no idea the name of the tool, but it was like a large steel ball/drum you would constantly mold the panel over for hours on end. Reminded me of kneading dough out like a pizza.
