Removing Brush Guards
My G55 came with brush guards which I would like to remove. My question is in regards to any holes being left where the mounting screws were. Particularly, the blinker cages have three screws holding them on, if I remove them, will there be three holes there? I guess I can get plastic trim plugs to cover them. Are these holes drilled just for the cages, or do all Gs have them? Same goes for the front brush guard and rear taillight cages.
Also, do you like the look of the brush guards, or take them off?
Personally, I like to see the grill of the truck. A lot of personality there.
Thanks!

You'll need a brush guard tool to remove it. It's not hard at all. As you know there are two supports on the front bumper. There will be 2 holes in the front and two on the top of the bumper left after each support. I guess it's up to your imagination how to cover them. I installed fog lights on the top of the bumper and I used the screw that came off the brush guard to close the holes on the front. It looks ok, not too bad.
