I didn't understand anything in the above post. So it won't act as a proper tow hook unless its welded to the actual tow hook point? Anybody?

it seems that the guy above with the front hook said he bolted it to a metal that easily bends... i think he bulted it up to the metal underthe shock obsorber... the metal that like cheap aluminum or soemthing.... which means if someone walks buy and sees it.. they think its fully functional and steps on it.... by by bumber... god forbid a tow truck drive wants to take his car someday

those look cool and all, but aren't you just asking for someone to steal your car by towing it?

that's what i think....

it looks cool, but it's just another way to give your car away to thieves.
