Default Doorway trim opinion needed

I have widen the kitchen door way almost twice the width, non load bearing
wall. After installing the trim and putting the fidge back, it sticks out
about an inch from the trim, I forgot the fridge backed up against the
window sill.
The question is, do I leave it as it is or should I add 1.5" to the wall? I
can recut the trim if need be.

TIA

The fact you ask the question gives you your answer.

Do you need to re-do it....no.
The fact that you ask the question leads me to believe that it bothers
you and in that case you'll probably end up fixing it sooner or later.
Go ahead and get it over with.

Thank you for your responses, I will add 1.5" to it. It does bother me. The
doorway was 28" now will be 48 and 4" taller. It matches the height between
the living and dining room. It looks more open now. I had to make new trim
for the top on one side, took awhile to figure out how to do it with the
bits I had. It came out pretty damn close.
