All wrong

100% Correctamundo Mr Boi! Ten points your way, spend them wisely!

Its an adjustable tow strap for use instead of a fixed tow hook. It means that theres plenty of scope for mounting it where I like plus it can be tied up behind the bumper when not on track. Ideal.

The lovely folk at GPRDirect. Its not in their catalogue so you'll need to ask specifically for it.

The metal 'eye' on the right is bolted to the chassis then the loop is effectively your 'hook'.

The red bit is the tow loop howler, the metal bit bolts onto the chassis in your chosen place.

Edit:-

Jord beat me lol!

Nah man thats a boso thing, they basicly steal shit like that(trains,buses handley things) then hang them from there car in somewhere where they will be seen clearly, normally under rear bumper. It shows how G they are and stuff

Had a bit of a BDC Prep day and got a fair few bits done.

So I can recognise my car amongst all the Bayside Blue PS13s



Rear tow hook painted and stickered



Stealthy front two hook installation -

Where?



Oh there!



Hooks up here when not in use.



Stuck these on.



Padded the monkeybars.



But now the car has the few stickers it HAS to have, it looks like it needs more to complete it. I wanted to keep it looking clean but it looks odd with these few now. By the way, the black stickers are to be overlaid with white versions.





All that and managed to sneak in a couple of hours at the local BMX park.
