How to add bends to a flat CAD design?

I'm currently designing something pretty simple, chassis mounts for a splitter on a 7th Gen Honda Accord. Nobody in their right mind would normally do this, but eh it's for a lemons race car so we're not in our right mind.
I designed the following above. Simple enough and I know how to bend it. I do want to share this design (presuming it works) for others to possibly just order from an online service pre cut and bent.
The problem I am having is I can't for the life of me figure out how to get from a simple flat sketch and extrusion to get a bend. You can see in the second image where the yellow line is highlighted exactly where I want to bend this at a simple 90 degrees.
Would love some help figuring this out as being able to bend stuff would really open up some new design elements for me!
YES, I searched for this and most of the questions were a lot more involved and not as simple and straight forward as the needs here. It's ONLY a 2d piece, and all it needs is a very simple straight forward 90 degree bend.
