I pulled mine off a while ago, and keep them in my glove box, just in case. I filled the holes with 1/2 nylon hole plugs that I got at Lowes.

I much prefer the fin enhancement to the nipplectomy.

I would never remove my Jeep's nipples. They are a Jeep trade mark. I think a Jeep is a lesser thing without them. The shark fins are approved substitute, though.
