Rear Tow Hook

Has anyone found a good option for a rear tow hook? I know you need to drill the bumper, however I got my 1LE for track duty and am having a hard time finding something.

Vendors feel free to chyme in.

Wish they would have added a picture on their site. I would think the best way to mount would be to put a small hole behind the license plate area and attach that way.

Then it wont look like an empty hole when you are driving around, unless you are into having it on driving around the street.... You know, just in case you get caught in a sand trap.

I'm pretty sure most of these will be for looks and not service. Car shows and the like.

Hmmm... Interesting. I never thought tow hooks are good looking, and people would want to add tow hook for look. I wouldn't want to drill a hole on my back bumper unless I really have to, like in case of racing.

These tow hooks are not to "tow anything" but to be "towed out" when your car gets stuck (like in sand trap with nose facing the wall or a tree...?), so these tiny tow hooks are for service, not looks.


I just do HPDEs so I just put in front tow hooks that came with the car, but for more serious guys, I understand the need for rear tow hooks.
