Default Front Bumper Tow hook Mount

Any recommendations for a tow hook mount for the RC? I got pulled over again this saturday for not front tags. I have seen a few in ebay but would prefer to see some that you guys may have purchased already.

Thanks in advance.

IMO, the Rho-plate is the only one worth buying. I just ordered one for my Mazda CX-9 on Friday of last week. Little history, skip the next paragraph if you don't care..

Because they haven't made anything for the CX-9 yet, they asked me to take a few measurements and send them a few photos. That was when I realized why there are so many different models sold on his site - every car is a little different, but getting a Rho-plate means you get something that is specifically made for your car. I bought the V1 for my 2008 IS250 like 5-6 years ago. It was perfect, fitment was spot on and it didn't stick out from the bumper like the universal ebay ones might have. I still have it, but because it doesn't fit on my 2018 CX-9, I decided to order another one.

or, if you have an RC-F: https://www.rho-plate.com/products/l...7-rho-plate-v2

For the record, no I do not work for Rho-plate, nor will I receive a discount or any kind of compensation for showing my support. I just liked my V1, and my recent experience in getting a V2 Rho-plate made for my CX-9 just showed me how much they separate themselves from the rest.

Couple of pics on my 2IS to show fitment and profile. I can only assume they've gotten even better.
