A method of forming a vehicle panel includes deforming a sheet metal workpiece between stamping tools to form a first and second edges that converge at a corner of the workpiece's main surface. The first edge is defined by a junction of the main surface and a first flange. The second edge is defined the main surface and a second flange. Forming the first and second edges includes deforming the workpiece so that the second flange has a first region bent to a first angle relative to the main surface and an unwinding region bent to an angle that unwinds from the first region as the second flange approaches the corner. The method includes deforming the workpiece between a second set of stamping tools that deform the first flange and the unwinding region of the second flange until the first and second flanges are bent greater than 90?.

Disclosed is an example of a method of manufacturing a pressed product including a substantially U-shaped main body and an undercut flange situated in the main body, in which an angle modification process can be eliminated. In the disclosed method, a third bent part, which is situated away from a first bent part towards a second bent part on a metallic sheet by a first length or more, is bent such that the first bent part is moved towards a first press direction and the undercut flange is moved towards a second press direction. The first press direction and the second press direction are opposite to each other. The first length is a length from a boundary between the undercut flange and a first plate portion to a tip of the undercut flange sized by projecting the undercut flange on an imaginary surface orthogonal to the first plate portion.
