Just trying to find out from you guys where your tow hook is located? Mine is off centered towards the passenger side. I bought the Stillen license plate bracket and of course its off center and they said they are used to the G35 having a centered tow hooks. So just trying to find out. Thanks.

Yes, all the 2nd gen sedans are like that,,, stillen and a few others made brackets so we would not have to drill holes for license plate bracket in our purrtty bumpers,, hopefully no one will ever have to use the eyebolt that goes in there,, especially if the car goes in the ditch, on the pass side, and ya can't get to it, or with already haveing the license plate screwed into the towhook threads......and of course in the rear its just a hook welded on, which is offset also......

I have the Stillen bracket as well. I like the offset look of the plate.

The install is gonna happen... eventually
The local shops I called today want $350 for the install. They also have a 3 week wait.
Trying to save a few bucks, I decided to do it myself, but now I'm trying to sync up with a few friends so I have some help.

This particular meet was down at Orange County Chopper in NY. I didn't take too many pics, but we had an awesome time down there.

The jack tools in that picture are as follows, from left to right...
1) Jack
2) Jack extension that hooks into scissor jack
3) Lug wrench/jack crank handle
4) 10mm wrenh with a little pry tool on the other end (most likely for removal of wheel center caps for those cars with covers over the lugs)
5) Tow hook
