Default Lower valance removal?

Has anyone taken off their valance and left it off? I'm putting a bull bar on and my valance doesn't have tow hook holes and I want to see pictures of the truck with the valance off.

I bought my truck without a lower valance on it, i believe i have a picture of my truck in my garage without the valance. When i replaced the valance it actually made the truck ride smoother, so i recommend just cutting your valance so the bar will fit

Mine's a 2wd so I'm thinking it will make it look a little higher too and i think the bull bar would cover any part of the frame that's showing.
