Are these legal to have on your car?
Also can you get removable ones as my splitter on my 1997 classic has covered my towing eye

I like the red classic, they're the type of tow hooks i want for my track car... but trying to see where the hell he has the front one mounted, i mean there is nothing there really to attach a tow hook to :s

Chris at CDF might be able to knock these up, look fairly straightforward
Something like these...
IMPREZA WRX STI LEGACY EJ25 EJ20 Front + Rear Tow Hook : eBay Motors (item 350302043709 end time Feb-05-10 18:16:51 PST)

This thread always pops it's head up and nothing comes of it.
eBay UK have tow hooks but they are replica's It's the US for the real thing.
As for the legality side of things IMO my tow hook sticking out the rear is a lot less obtrusive than a Tow bar.
Those bull bars Mitsi L200's have would do more damage than a took hook.
If it's for track purposes why not just run the OEM one?

Less d!cking around when you use one of these on track; easy to locate and use, far better than laying\ kneeling down looking for the towing eye

I Assume you won't mind me asking but why go for the GB?
Don't you like the fact that they are not mass produced? Not doubting CDF at all they will do a great job but i don't get why people don't go off and source the part themselves.
There's a ton of Aero parts i want but i'm not going to approach a bodyshop to knock me one up when i can source the original part. It may cost slightly more and it will be imported but there's a bespoke factor

simple - because i want a pair of tow hooks.
even though iv got bespoke parts on my car, im not going for a bespoke car, more of a 'no bull****' approach and i see it practical to have a decent pair of tow hooks that are easy accessable
you say you dont see why people dont go off and find them? why not make life easy and pay someone from the UK to do a job then someone in usa or elsewhere overseas
are you annoyed more people over here will be running them on their cars or something ?

Bockett, there are sooooooooo many impreza's in the Uk that it's nigh on impossible to do something unique and if you do pull it off then it's only a matter of time before someone copies it...check out my black roof that I've been running since 2005, there's bloomin' loads now
Your look is hardly unique, it's just a NASOIC car

Yeah right. Believe me it's nothing to do with NASIOC. (A) It's become to common with UK guys, i seek something a little different (B) It's as bitchy on there as it is here
