Legit "JDM"? It's a machined piece of metal. Why would you want to spend more money on something that will most likely never be used for its intended purpose? What's wrong with the eBay ones?

I suppose that's true for certain things, but here you're simply talking about a machined piece of anodised aluminium. I think you'll be just fine with one of the inexpensive eBay versions.

What JDM tow hooks are you talking about?

The one most of the JDM'ers use are made by Bennen Industries, right here in America.

I know Ebay is selling those Datum 1 Tow hooks for $40 shipped. I don't know what it is about them but I like them too... Gosh, it's that same feeling I had when I used to be into body kits some 6 or 7 years ago.
