ordered a set of tow hooks today for my 13 sport, 168 for the pair from dealer, was kind of surprised, couldn't even find them that cheap online, they warned me that they sit low in the opening on the sports but I already knew that from here, ill post pics when I get them on

my opening is already cut, I have a 20" led light bar down there only piece of the plastic left it where the tow hooks go so I just have to remove those leftover pieces

the westing offroad light bar fits, its listed as doesn't fit because it requires trimming or removal of the plastic insert, its on my to get list also in order to raise my led light bar a bit higher

you can remove the entire piece, its just held in by locking tabs from the back, im not sure if you can buy the premolded pieces with the holes already in them to fit the sport or not but I will look into it as I plan to put a westin light bar to raise my led light bar a bit higher

My Sport is a 2014 and has a splash type guard under the chassis right behind the front end clip and bumper.

Does that need to be removed in order to bolt the hooks on?

It does not, the only thing that has to be cut or removed is the insert in the lower grill
