I'm running one of these :



it's a driftworks tow hook ... no need for cutting the bumper, just the front mesh

I'm currently looking into getting some rear tow hooks similar to the Dash hooks fabbed in the UK but where the rear bumper / tow hook cover doesn't need to be cut since I have a carbon rear diffuser

this on my IX RS. It is a Porsche tow hook . You can screw it off if you want it. Like taking off the front bumper. Also very very light and cool looking. E-bay buy cost around $60 if i remember right. Google it.


When it's off:


now the same set up on my X fron and rear

Looks like a nice setup. For the IX did you just drill into the bumper beam and thread it?

Nice RS BTW.

thanks.
Yes , we drilled the crash beam and welded one proper nut behind it, make it real professional
Only bad about this set up it needs welding for the receiver part, what you buy at the home depo for $2...

But from there you can be invisible if you take them off.
I like them so as the people who saw them. I can recommend it since it is a nice quality what you can see, truly a Porsche tow hook.
It comes couple different color also.
