At first I thought you had made the whole lower lip section but after looking again you've just added the 3/4" wide black strip along the very bottom?
Wondered how you could have knocked that up from bits available from b&q

Blinking flip, I'm not a domestic heating engineer you know - you lot have more fiddles than a barn dance and more hobbles than a fracture clinic.
