How do I get both sides to match? Is there a way to make the flange copy the curve from the opposite side?

Arkadiusz Noga I did try that and it would mirror the side I needed but wouldn’t let me connect them like it was all one piece

Arkadiusz Noga I can mirror like this but don’t know how to connect them where both sides are a bend?

Pull the flange longer, start a sketch on its face, project the curve and extrude cut.

Mike Campbell If you have positioned your part over a midplane - the easiest task (as other people have mentioned is a mirror). I would extrude your second flange to half of the desired width and Mirror over that face.

This is what I do for similar things, do you know if there is a way to do it on angled flanges and have the "cut edge" perpendicular with the flange edge still? (For working with sheetmetal and cutting them from 2d flat patterns)

Bork Leeson project the curve as above, but instead of extrude cut use split face. then unfold the part and do the extrude and refold, You'll get normal edges then. Sometime you'll be able to use push/pull (offset face) the remove the material instead of unfolding and extruding.

This shows the idea, Was done to show angled cuts over bends, but might help explain. https://knowledge.autodesk.com/community/screencast/884bcc59-0476-4358-b369-cf8fb40650a5
