Hi. I've encountered a problem while trying to install a decorative (chrome) p-trap under a console sink.
The stubout coming from the wall attaches to the in-wall plumbing via an elbow. As a result, the connection point between the drain pipe and stubout extends 3 inches from the wall. I could use an extra deep escutcheon plate - which still would not completely cover it, but I would prefer to use a shallow escutcheon plate. Is it possible to move the connection point closer to the wall? Is there something other than an elbow I can use to accomplish this? The main plumbing line is a few inches off center from the sink drain, so I need some way to bring the line in center with the drain and add the stubout. I would greatly appreciate any advice offered.
Thanks, Ben

I suggest you post a photo. It will be more clear in explaining your situation, and it will draw more interest.

"Possible" is a pretty strong word, although you may be thinking of a weaker concept such as practical, economical, easy, or whatever.
