Modify Interior Plantation shutters

I've been asked to draw a lot of detail lately. A house has wide interior plantation shutters, I see this a lot. There are 5 different sizes of windows in the house. There is no shutter that has wide slats for interior treatment in Chief. I found a pretty nice plantation shutter in the warehouse. It needs to have wider top rail, mid rail, bottom rail. I can make those wider but to do the all the slats need to be redistributed. That means modifying the shutter for 5 different sizes and evenly redistributing the slats in sketchup, exporting, importing to chief to place on the inside of the windows as an object.

 

Is there a tutorial or post to tell me how to make a plantation shutter in chief that I can use as an interior shutter that will resize itself for this and ongoing projects?

I need to make a plantation shutter and then add it as a window treatment so it will resize with the different sizes of windows. What's the best way to do that?
