Front Tow Hook For R32: Strap Or Metal ?

[cobrAA]

I would like to have the tow hook as discrete as possible. I'm thinking if I go strap, I could hide it inside the bumper and pull it off when needed.

However, I don't dislike the tow hook metal style but I wouldn't paint it orange, I will paint it black just like the rest of my car so it still discret.

So what would you do in my situation ? strap or metal ? and could you recommend me a hook that actually fit a BNR32 instead of all those universal one ?

thanks a lot

I'm not sure if it's still a requirement, but Tow Hooks used to have to be Orange, Yellow or Red, or in the instance that your car is Orange, Yellow or Red, they had be painted in contrast to the body colour. That may have changed with the introduction of the TOW stickers, but you'd have to confirm that. AFAIK, You can't paint them body colour.

So, if discreet is the aim, I'd suggest the cloth strap, which you can tuck away when not in use. (Or, remove the metal tow hook when not using, and reinstall every time).

I also think the tow strap would be more discret and possibly easier to fit. I see so many metal tow hook that could possibly means I will have to cut the bumper of my greddy bumper
