heck no. havent you seen any bmw's/mbz's track cars? go to speedhunters.com and take a look at how sick those cars look. mind you this is is for a sporty look. not to be rude but i only want to see pics or other cars like "cleans14"'s car that is actualy knowledgeable in this area (with pics)

I guess if you own a beast like that...go for the tow hooks

Tom, not repainted yet bro. Bumper should be in this week.

I'm actually going to put it on my car. It gets annoying to have to take off the bumper everytime to gain access to the tow hooks under the car when I pull the car onto a trailer. I'm building a custom one that I'm going to weld to the bumper bar. It's also going to be screwed in so I can remove it when the cars not on a trailer.

Nah, my car is FAR from being a trailer queen. Usually I drive it to the track, but I only get about 150miles per tank and that's pushing it lol. Sometimes when I go to events further away I need a tow, either that or I have a extra 5 gal tank in the back seat

The car has only been in tow about 4 times, and 3 of them were because I had a bad tire lol!
