The world is your oyster there, all sorts have been used, mine is done with a couple of wood mouldings, (varnished), others have used vinyl covered padded bits fastened on, alloy strip, you name it. Cheers Ray

I made mine from rigid foam used for protecting worktops in transit (30 mm). Covered in vinyl and glued in position, See archive pics. Cost nothing and looks good.

I made alloy U channels bent to the shape and trimmed with padding under the trim

Mine's made from uPVC edging strip. It came rounded on one edge and I cut to width then rounded it to match on the cut side. Sprayed black, looks fine to me.





It looks like the Midget is winning at the moment......
