I am in that mindset as well. Whatever I have found on my truck that is not necessary and is legal to chop off or remove, I have. I took off my fender flares (although I may have to put them back for inspection) and chopped up the bumper, took off all the door and tailgate badges (along with a crappy rocker panel graphic) and now I am working on that grille. I dont know that I will do much about the fron tan drear bumper until I can finally put together some tube ones.
