The item in my kit
I bought Art3d Black Outside-Corner Trim as part of my camper van equipment.
The custom heater cover had a front face, triangular sides and several exposed edges. This corner trim is part of the edging materials I bought for finishing panel work.
Where it fits my build
I made a front panel and two triangular side pieces from black aluminum composite sheet. The cover let me orient the heater vent toward the van interior instead of following the sloping back of the seat platform.
I joined the panels with brackets and self-tapping screws, then fitted the assembly at the seat base. The angle of the platform made drilling awkward, and one screw position left a hole that I planned to cover with a larger washer.

My build notes
I liked the black composite sheet: it was easy to work with and cut, and I liked how it looked. The difficulty came at the angled fastening positions, where access mattered as much as the shape of the cut panels.
The finished panel shape and the access for fastening it had to work together.
Alternative products
Two alternatives to compare
The narrower Art3d molding creates a different border profile. Protalwell uses an L-shaped edge, so the section shape and amount of edge coverage distinguish these options.
Art3d Black Flexible Molding Trim
This Art3d molding combines a flexible decorative profile with adhesive backing. The narrow black strip follows a border around a panel or edge.
This gray L-shaped rubber trim uses a peel-and-stick backing along an exposed edge. Its small profile offers another adhesive-backed approach to finishing a panel border.
