Guys, I'm very excited to have just recieved Eric's premium Poly NISMO replica front bumper.

One problem though, it does NOT have the square molding cut-out for the front tow-hook.

I actually like the look of the NISMO front without the tow-hook square, but am worried to as what would happen if I get into trouble and need the car towed. How would they SAFELY (without f*ing up my car) get the coupe up on a tow truck bed without a tow-hook?

Please give me your open and honest .02's on this. Should I have the tow-hook cut out at the body shop or leave it as is (which is having no tow-hook square 'access' door).

Thanks Guys!!!

I dont have one any more but its a good idear to keep it. My car is so low it would never make it on a trailer with out me just pulling off the bumper any ways.

 

Man, what a catch-22 to be in. I like the "looks" of the front better without it, but 'what to do' if you need a tow, you know!?

 

flatbeds FTW...never had them use the tow hook once and i've had my car towed more times than i like to admit

 

Yeah, but flatbeds still have to get your car up on the bed - how are they going to do that if your car is not operable? Isn't that what the tow hook is for (specific for this car), b/c it does NOT have a 'safe' way to move the car unless you use the tow hook which is attached to the frame of the car?

I've been lucky (knock on wood) and haven't had to have the coupe towed. I'm taking it that there is a way to attach the CHAIN to what though? and 'pull' the coupe up ontop of the flatbed?

Let me know your thoughts guys so I can make the decision to not have the tow hook access.

Thanks Guys!
