Default T1R Tow Hook

Is it Long Enough To Protect rear bumper from say parallel parking idiots who like to play bumper cars?

Was going to get it for that reason since rear bumper has been repainted.

It is for the front. With the oem extension, it's about 4 inches in front of the bumper. If flipped down, it's about 2" out in front of the bumper.

My oem tow hook saved me once because someone parallel parked into the tow hook instead of my bumper. I forgot to take it off after a track day.

our GTM one sticks out far enough to make it stick out far enough to scare off guys bumping. lol. the depth is adjustable


We make these in clear, red, or black anodized loops. includes the stainless extention part that allows for proper mounting front or rear
