    Default Square edge chrome trim

    I've done plenty of round-edged chrome trims around windows, but today or possibly tomorrow I'll be making my debut with Squared edged chrome trim...

    Just wondering, if folk tend to still mitre the corners???

    I'm a bit 50/50 'cos I reckon it might look better with them just butted up to each other?
