Looks nice either way. In the same boat, not sure whether to dremel out holes/slots for tow hooks or toss the FX2 valence in lieu of a 4WD one with tow hooks.

I like it without the valence. The valence looks out of place because it sits to low compared to everything else. Maybe if there was some side skirts to match the valence.

Good choice on removing it.

How are your wheels holding up? Paint still good?

Leave the valance off...get some black steps and ditch the chrome or just eliminate the step all together and that thing will be perfect!

Nice truck man, I do agree with the step thing in a way. Thought about taking mine off then, I realized how much I actually use it and theres no way mine will ever come off. They probley do have one that will work better with the color scheme you have tho. Good work!

Looks alot better now, IMO. Are you going to paint it DSG like the bumper when you do your handles and flares?
