Throttle body delete

Hello people,
I'm sick of the look of the damn throttle body, it looks UGLY, it ruins the look of an otherwise pretty engine bay
05-07s don't have throttle body, what about fitting the 05-07 elbow (without TB) to my late 04? Will that trigger a check engine light? Will the holes on the manifold line up on the 05-07 elbow?

Thanks

You're talking about the throttle plate on the 03-04 trucks.
I have an 04 and removed that section and bolted on a stock 05 elbow.
You will have a soft code for the part that is no longer functional but on my truck it didn't throw a CEL.
