IKEA Pax wardrobe

I'm thinking of getting IKEA Paz wardrobes, but in measuring up the room, I realise that I am going to have several cm gaps on the top and on one side of the wardbrobe.
do IKEA sell 'blanking sections' or something that could provide a means to hide the gaps?
Also, I have a chimney breast in the middle, but am thinking of goping for the maximum depth - cupboards extending out, then perhaps a set of shelfs over the chimmney, or even a big mirror?
any thoughts

For our chimney breast we effectively hid it, by using full depth into the alcoves, but they also sell something like a 35mm deep carcass with the same doors in the pax range. We put this in the middle all connected together. Looks something like this :- OOOoooOO with 8 500mm doors.
For blanking I reckon you would have to get some contiboard in the same colour/pattern from a diy shed and trim that - or buy another wardrobe carcass and trim it down into strips that fit what you want.0 -
Depending on the colour scheme of your wardrobes, you might find the kitchen 'cover panels' match - they do them up to 60cm x 233cm.Life should be a little nuts; otherwise it's just a bunch of Thursdays strung together.0
