I wouldn't care much to run that on a race car even. I'd probably weld something to the rear bumper support and cut through the rear bumper cover.

I've been looking at doing something like that, as I need a NASA legal tow hook soon. They haven't said anything to me about it...yet.

It sounds like you already made up your mind, so why bother asking our opinion? Maybe you want your car to look like a "race" car? If so, go for it.

well, my real reason for posting was because i have only seen 5th gens. with tow hook, hoping for someone to post a pic of a 4th gen.

also, to ask if they would fit. but i guess their universal?

My 92 came with a stock tow. I took it off and still have the tow with bolts and tow ball. The original owner use to tow his dirt bike to the track.
