font-lock is the way to go!  A list starting with the symbol face allows setting any number of properties.  The matcher would have instead of a face name

("\\[[AG]\\]" (face default insible t))

or to display arbitrary strings

("\\[A\\]" (face my-A-face display "This hides [A]"))
("\\[G\\]" (face my-G-face display "This hides [G]"))

Untested, maybe you need ("..." (0 (face ...)))
