removing the trim off my tank??

[reefwars]

i think i will be able to get it off easily enough its split in alot of places and bowed and warped where its not split and i think it will look alot nicer without it .i have never removed the trim off one before just curious was there anything bad could happen?? how hard is it to find a lid should i go that route one day, can i still fit a glass lid on top?? thanks
