There's a siding outfit in Wichita that forms there own -- I'd talk to
somebody like that and see if they couldn't form for you or have another

Or, bend your own from aluminum, it really isn't that difficult but you
do need a bender--but for single wide they're not that expensive from HF.

Or maybe buy the sill & brickmould prebent?

I may have found a local window place that will bend a piece for me. The
sales-guy says that all of their trucks have brakes on them so they could
probably bend a piece while a truck was in the yard. He said to stop in
with the dimensions to get a price.
Trimbender has a maximum length of 94" and I think (I'm not home) that the
actual length of my sill is a full 8'. Rough estimate is $14 for a 94" piece,
$30 shipping.
I'll see how the local place prices it and take it from there.
Thanks.
In a former life I used to do that as a side line, but used aluminum.
If vinyl can be bent as easily it is a simple job. I'd make a template
of all the pieces needed and bend them up at home, they take them to the
house and install quickly.
Be sure to seal it so rain cannot get under it and rot any wood under
the sill.
