I searched tow hook on google and got only one maker for the LC.
Do other Lexus models uses the same tow hook bolt-on?

 

Isn't there one back in the trunk? Or you not looking for the tow hook itself?

The front plate bracket through the tow hook is called a platypus.

its specific for the car model.

The platypus is available at Cravenspeed.com

 

Installed tow hook plate not from platypus but looks exactly like it and it took longer than I thought since I had to get rubber stoppers in case it rubbed the bumper. After I was finally done it kept on setting off the front proximity sensor especially when making right turns. I ended up removing it because I rather not turn off the sensors. Just hope I do not get pulled over

 

So I did get the platypus license plate bracket. I have tried it on and it fits fine, however I have not yet driven the car with it. In Illinois, except in the city of Chicago, police look the other way on missing front plates. And I wouldn’t be caught dead actually driving my LC in the city.

The platypus is sized specifically so it won’t set off the sensors. But I can’t attest to that since I’ve never driven with the front plate on. My plan is if I’m ever pulled over I just tell the cop that I forgot to reattach it and simply put it on in front of the officer. I believe it would be some sort of crime to actually bolt a license plate on that front grill.
