Probably would need to get the non-tow hook valance. Or reinstall the rubber covers so you just have the 2 small holes where the hook arms would be. Just a guess.

I think there are tow hook blank covers. Here is one I found on eBay.

Out of curiosity, why remove them? they do come in handy sometimes.

I cannot imagine people would have not complimented prior to removing them also.

Probably the last thing anyone notices. But it’s obviously your truck to do as you wish.

I find it odd how people get upset or confused by what someone wants to do with their property. I did have a question about the reasoning behind this initially, but have no issues with someone wanting to do something different to their vehicle.

I think it’ll look super clean and applaud you for trying to be a bit different.
