Better solution for tile stair edges?

Bought a house a few years ago and the stairs came with this really bulky edge trim. It sticks up above the stair tread by a quarter inch and I'm tired of tripping on it. Any advice on options to remedy without having to tear the tile out? Obviously I can't go back in time and use some of the options that Schluter makes that go under the tile, or put in bullnose tiles. I'm currently thinking to either sand it down as much as I can or look at some of the glue down vinyl nosing like this: https://www.lowes.com/pd/Project-Source-1-88-in-x-78-7-in-Faded-Finished-Vinyl-Stair-Nosing/5013809421?store=1682&cm_mmc=shp-_-c-_-prd-_-flr-_-ggl-_-CRP_SHP_LIA_FLR_Online_C-D-_-5013809421-_-local-_-0-_-0&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwvr--BhB5EiwAd5YbXn6Y6Tx6__8dd00JwUC4xEwMg8Cd5AD-kAgDCpAVOhLkXphpkXlzqBoCxnwQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds#no_universal_links submitted by /u/ReservoirGods [link] [comments]
