Default To keep or not to keep

So I've seriously been thinking about getting rid of my grille guard, step bars, tail light covers and rear bumper guard for a cleaner look. So my question is if you were in my shoes what would you do? Here's a pic to help

I'd ditch the grill guard or replace it with a bull bar and keep the rest

I like the look of your rig the way it is. if i was you id get ride of the tail light covers. rear bumper gaurd? Let me see it. just take what you want off and drive it for a week or two and if you like it sell everything you took off.

I think I'm gonna do that tomorrow and see through the weekend how I like it. I've had the grille guard for like ten years now so being without it will be so different to me.
