It’s ok to have dent or crease on a Jeep. In fact some people will tell you it adds character to it.

I'd take it off, pretty simple, I did it to wire my windshield hinge mounted lights. Remove wiper arms, 4 torx head screws, and it's off. The side cowl panels they're denting with the mirror when removing the straps are not removable, they'd hafta be done on the vehicle. Mine had a dent in the side cowl piece when I bought it, so I just went with the rugged ridge covers like in the pics above.
