Materials Needed:

Step 1: Create the frame

Using some drywall mesh tape and styrofoam I created the form for the addition to the trim piece.






Step 2: Apply fiberglass matting

Apply fiberglass matting to the top portion of the trim piece, allowing for some overhang.






Step 3: Insert LCD Bezel

After that has hardened with a few layers and sanded, trim overhand and insert LCD bezel into position, hot glue to hold.






Step 4: Apply fiberglass matting

Apply fiberglass matting to the LCD bezel area.






Step 5: Sand and test fit

After installing several layers of fiberglass matting and sanding, test fit to make sure things are lining up.






Step 6: Apply lightweight bondo

Apply a light weight bondo to fill in the gaps from sanding the fiberglass matting. Once this has hardened sand it down smooth and repeat.






Step 7: Apply paint & install

Apply paint to your trim piece, sand smooth, repaint & repeat till look is desired.
