Unless you can determine who built the tank then you are probably out of luck as each manufacturer uses a different style trim as I have found over the years. You might find one that is close if you call a few tank manufacturer's and maybe send them a picture of your trim.

even if im redoing all the trim i couldnt use any type as long as its cut to the right size?

Glass Cages Tank Trim

OOPs, or you can go Euro Bracing. Using glass cut to fit inside lip of your tank.

Euro Bracing will be your best bet, and a nicer look.

I am not sure about it as I just know that there are many different styles of trim out there. In my garage I have a 180 gallon, 210 gallon and a 240 gallon all by different builders and the trim is completely different on each. I can't tell you that using any trim as long as it is cut to correct size will work because I have never tried it! :) If in doubt I would just go to euro bracing like mentioned above or you could try different trim and see how it works! I would think as long as it supports the tank like the old trim did then it would probably work, but I can't tell you 100% sure it will.
