Hooks, eyes and straps. What's towing you?

Those of you who are into track car style mods will be familiar with the vast range of aftermarket towing accessories out there.

They come in all colours, designs, costs and styles. Here's some examples:

 This is probably the most popular style of rear hook.























For that real motorsport look this is nice, simple and super functional, plus you know some angle grinders have been brought out for this one, and that's no bad thing.



Seeing more of these, its a nice substitute to cutting the bumpers! They look as cool as they are functional.


And they are even available for the rear:










 One for the rotorheads out there:

Then there are tow straps become quite popular regardless of what scene you follow:




 Personal opinion: They all have their benefits in looks a workings, but I think nothing beats the peace of mind you get from the towing eye being 1 solid piece of metal cut into a functional shape. (plus tow straps look like a tongue)

What do you think? Let us know in the comments below.

p.s. watch out for Track Weapon tow hooks and eyes in the near future! (no straps though...)
