Default Benen's Updated Verson Tow-Hooks

For those who havent heard, Benen Industries is back in business. Let me be the first to tell you guys there is a slight difference between the older tow-hooks compared to the new ones. It might not be that noticable but the "BENEN IND" engravings are much more sharper and crisper. The design of the hooks remains orginal. Still has the orginal Silver and Black color selection. There will also be a limited supply of special colors only available to first come, first serve costumers. Please contact benen for more info. http://www.Benen.com

Orginal Version Tow-Hook (Notice the letters isnt as sharp)


The New Updated Tow-Hook (Much more crisp letters, Alot more noticable)

IDK why everyone says thieves will take your car easier now or whatever. There is a tow loop already so I mean if a thief wants your car bad enough, he'll get it. I mean this extends it out like 6 inches or something, big deal. I mean not starting anything but there is already a place to latch onto anyways.

You said it yourself it sticks out 6 inches for a reason. It's made to be towed faster and easier. That's the purpose of having a tow hook. They where never intended for cosmetic purposes.

i never had a problem towing to ever need an aftermarket tow hook like benen with the "sharp, more crisp engraving BENEN IND". the tow truck drivers I've gotten always knew how to properly pull lowered cars onto the flatbed.

You must not protect your car very well. If they know what you have, and want to make sure they get it, they can tow it, and not necessarily with a tow truck, ah drrrr.

not if your car is lowered.

tow hooks are a waste of money if they are just for show. but then all show cars are a waste of money so...
