I'm in the same situation now. I want to take mine off and mount my kc's behind the grille. And get some go rhino steps. Just not ready to get rid of the guard. I get a lot of compliments on the guard but I think its time for a change.

Keep the steps, lose everything else and maybe add a bull bar. That will keep it simple and clean.

IMO, I would remove the grill guard, seems so big. Other than that, looks nice!

Well here's what I got done today, step bar bolt were pretty seized up so I'll work on them Friday. I also got my lights put behind the grille. So what do you think so far?
