I have one too on the rear, they seem quite big so unsure wether to get one for the front yet, but nice bit of kit though.

There isn't really many options for a tow hook or tow strap i personally feel for classics, not sure about newage >.

The tow hooks are vertical and from what i can see only the rear one is removeable.

I was looking at TRS tow straps but there isn't a secure way to fit it to either the front or rear using the OEM locations. If you were to some how fit them, when being towed it looks like it would just rip the bumper to pieces.

Thanks

I`ve never really understood them I can see the sense on a trackday maybe but for everyday use it just makes the Scooby appear that it`s prone to breaking down and needs towing regular
