Default Tools/Techniques for Sanding Small Radius?

What tools do you use to shape/sand small radii like these 90-degree bends?

Things I tried left variation in the radius and/or waves that would look like caca when painted.

Are there scrapers, fixed-radius sanding blocks, or contour blocks for these small radii? I'm guessing OD on the lower edge of the bumper cutout is about 3/32" and on the more "vertical" edges, maybe 1/8"?
