I would like opinions. I will definately replace the casing but should I replace the innner trim or can I just paint it? I have attached a few pics. Please let me know what you think.

Why would you remove this wood to only replace it with other wood? It's just a filler piece. I'd open the side trim pieces to see if they're wide for a reason. They could be there to cover a large gap. Ron
