Default Sport With Tow hooks

Has anyone ordered a sport with the protection group?
It looks as if you can get skid plates but, the tow hooks are not an option?

When I ordered mine the protection group wasn't an option in the ordering system. Once I get it I'll end up putting the skids and hooks on myself.

I agree the option was not there. However, to add hooks we will need to replace the front vent/valance on the bumper.

Correct. The Sport bumpers are not made to accommodate tow hooks. Is it replaceable on the Sports or is it all one piece?

I was under the impression that only the TRX4 had the option. I know for a fact the sport wasn't allowed this option but what about the laramie?

You can get tow hooks on SLT, Trx and Laramie. I'm pretty sure the sport won't work with them because of the front bumper valance. I just thought I'd ask to make sure. I wonder how hard it would be to modify the stock valance to use tow hooks? I love the sport interior and would go for the TRX but, I can't get the TRX in monotone.
