Anyone have any input on how to install the front j's racing tow hook on the jdm front end teg?.. they said its made specifically for the jdm front end but i've tried all sorts of way and not sure how to get it to bolt securely?.. bolting it onto the radiator support frame is too far of a reach and barely makes it out the front bumper plus its not flat enough to flush fit all four bolt. i've seen some integra have it come out in horizontal and other's vertical.... where does it bolt onto and which is the right way?...... car need this cause i hate tow truck damaging my lip and bumper... thanks for all info..

Hope you have your car garaged at all times. These parts just make it easier for thieves to get away with your stuff.

The tow hook isn't going to save the lip from being damaged.....

Oh, so you mean that chain attaching to the Stock towpoints will be Safe for his bumper?


OP, have you taken the bumper(plastic) off to figure it out?

Yea i've taken the whole bumper off and still can't figure out where to bolt this onto. Forsure you have to drill holes but the lenght of the how hook is barely enough to squeeze through the opening of the bumper if it is bolt onto the support frame, this cause a very tight fit. Support frame have very little room to bolt, not enough to fill up all four bolt... I know that the EG and EK version was made to bolt perfectly.. but whats up with the DC version?...

I need the front tow hook cause my car is dropped and having chains go under my lip streching my bumper is not an option, i've damaged my lip a few times already and not taking anymore risk.

They can also use straps that work very well

How often does your car need to be towed?

Hell, I just take my lip off If I need my car towed.

their are many reasons for this tow hook other then that hard parking look... I know it is not often that my car gets towed but like i said its worth investing in this tow hook then have a damaged lip or bumper, plus you never know when you'll need a tow... taking a oem jdm front lip off the car is not as easy as it sounds, especially when you are dropped and parked on the curve.. i would rather have something that is easier to deal with... and to thsoe who think this is easier for theft to steal, well if they really want to steal your car they could of regardless of the tow or not....

if anyone has anymore info on the tow hook please reply.... thanks all...
