X Tow Points

I might be running my first track event this Sunday and one requirement is to have tow hooks or tow points pointed out on the car.

I highly doubt I can get hooks by then, and I've searched, but can't seem to find where the tow points are on an X.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Also, for those that have tracked their X, did you have the ASC On/Off/Off Off? I usually drive with it Off.

There is a little square plastic box thing in your center grill kind of on the passenger side, and in the rear, its the same kind of box, but on the drivers side.

The USDM bumper does not support a tow hook, it is only for the JDM bumper support that have the tow hooks. You will need to buy a universal tow hook and weld a nut to the back to the bumper support. The X does have a rear tow hooks below the bumper.

Replace the USDM with JDM and then pop open the cap on the bumper?

As someone whose Evo X is sitting at Max Madsen Downser Grove with broken tie rods thanks to an idiot that towed it on Sunday (FASTkeys both failed to the point where even the emergency key wouldn't start the car.... had to be towed 100 miles home), I wouldn't recommend this.
