Covering front tow hook openings on PU

I'm looking for ideas on covering up the openings in the front of my truck.

Right now I don't even know if I want to keep the tow hooks because I don't go off road and don't expect to be stuck knee deep in mud. So removal is an option on the table.

Removal of the tow hooks sure would make things more simple. If kept in place, I've thought of sealing the hole with sponges form the dollar store and glassing around the area. Then I would just pull and pluck the sponge off the back, keeping the tow hooks sticking out.

Here is an image of the openings in question.

On the non 4x4 pick-up trucks these openings are vented grille openings. I really do not think that I need to let the extra air in for any cooling reasons.

I'm open to suggestion.
