I had one, it's not that stupid imo, I used mine, but then again I made mine. I've also seen plenty of use from fellow auto-x'ers and on the track. That is if your car is as low as mine was.

p.s. I like how everyone is anti-jdm and anti-ricer now, it's kinda funny.

Oh believe me, I love me some JDM parts. I just said it's one of the stupid JDM fads, not saying that all JDM fads are stupid.

I think they're great if you use them, but most people put them on for looks and IMO something that's designed for function should not be used only for appearance. If you don't use them for anything, all they are doing is making your car easier to steal with a flatbed truck.

You know your car already has a factory tow hook installed, it's not making it easier to steal unless you always back in to park. All it is doing is preventing it from destroying the front and rear fascias. Great if you have a body kit or front and rear lips.

really? didn't know that. I was thinking about how other cars that park next to me would do to it like bend it or get hooked to someone's bumper. I live in Brooklyn and poeple can't park. Don't want that to happen. but I couldn't find it on e-bay under tow hooks . it was under jmd tow hooks. thanks again.
