it's still easier to steal. when stealing a car every second is valuable (no, I do not steal cars... lol). When you put one of those tow hooks on you're just putting the tow hook more out in the open and more obvious.

Also, those tow hooks are bigger than stock so they're easier to attach chains to.

 

stfu ******

 

I dont think they look too bad, but I do plan on getting one too..but for the right reason. AutoX and I dont want another lip broken because of a tow.

 

plethoric33 your lip broke cause of the tow hook?

 

he means from towing the car with the stock hooks. the stock front hook is really low

 

ok that sucks. by the way talking about stealing are those car boots pretty good? anyone heard anything bad about them. saw a lot of cars with them at the car show so thinking of getting one. slow down the tow guys lol

 

You can get alarms with tilt sensors. If the car is raised up or messed with much at all it will go off. Theft is the least of my worries with a tow hook. Just get an alarm. I have had this hatch towed twice due to slave cylinder issues with the LS tranny on it, and both times the bumper and lip were flexing like crazy getting it on and off the flat bed. So im getting a hook.
