The exterior sheathing is 2" out from the window. I was going to flash this area. Then the Jtrim goes on the side. But does the jtim go to the edge or should i use some trim? Or should the flashing go around the jtrim? I guess my question is : if the jtrim ends on the edge will it look funny?

Not sure what you are talking about but I always set the outside and then used extended jambs to make the inside correct on thick walls.
 
Got a picture?
Would have been far better to pull the window and reset it after building the wall out then installed extension jambs on the inside.
If not the jambs and sill need to be built out, wrapped with coil stock then install the siding.
The wrapping should be done so there's flanges that extend out beyond window by about 4" to keep wind and water from getting in.
