What do y'all think? Bend new ones, or use what's in the kit?

Make your own. If the metal's a badly stretched as it is on the outside of
that bend, it can't help but to have been weakened AND embrittled.

De rigeur with heavier models is to bend it in a fairly gentle sweep, then
solder on a washer to act as the inboard bearing, instead of the wheel's
bearing directly on the 'crotch' of the bend. It'll turn better, too.
