We are installing new (paintable vinyl) exterior shutters on windows. We have two windows that have narrow space on each side — too narrow for 7" shutter (the smallest we’ve found so far). We have about 5" to work with. Can we get something to "frame" these windows – vinyl strips? – that can be painted to match the new shutters, so these windows won’t look naked?

Go to a place that sells Vinyl Siding.They should have different size vinyl clad boards that are used on porches and or garage doors.Don’t go to Home Depot or Lowes.Look up Vinyl Siding in your yellow pages.
