no kidding if you have ever had your car towed there is no place to hook up to

 

trailer hitch would win more. Go to the track hauling a beater truck hauled by my balt.....

maybe someone can photoshop one for me as a background.

/threadjack

btw i think its pretty useful and not ricey at all if you keep it low-profile

 

I think its a pretty good idea, i know i could have used them when i broke my axles at the track one night and had to push it half way down cause we could not find a place to hook to that would not rip off my front facia...but as someone said before if it were a two piece deal where you could take it off for DD and just pin it back in place for the track i think it would very well serve a purpose and not really be considered "rice"

 

he must not know how to tow i tow mine on a weekly basis nothin damaged ever!!!!!! and i tow it on a wheel lift.......those would be nice though if you ever have 2 put it on a flatbed

 

more like a Recovery hook to aid tow trucks when you launch it off an off ramp.

 

I'd love a 2-piece design that can come unhooked when it isn't needed.

 

now thats good thinking

 

There is a guy on here, he's actually local to me, who has those Benen tow hooks on his car. His reasoning is that he runs coilovers and the car is slammed. I think they look out of place, but it could be worse and they are functional.

 

i like the look of them and if u use them for a reason then even better i want them becasue my car is low as hell and if i ever gotta get on a flat bed it can be towed on easaly

 

Same car from the front..

 

aw stu! i already said that!

 

my bad bro, i missed it.

 

ok, those are bigger than i thought. i was thinking about vertical too, not horizontal. they look good though.

 

I don't see how or why it would be rice. Are they for looks or do you intend to really use them for towing? (either way still not rice IMO)

 

i would have it set up so it would only be on for track days...

it would be intended for aiding in towing...

 

Anyone to bad mouth it then should get smacked

 

if u can find i will buy... Who knows when i will need one the way my car has been acting

 

It would be really useful if your car dies and your trying to push start Of course hopefully you got rope or something as well.

 

hey will.... email MRZ and see if it can be bolted on.... no holes drilled

 

MRZ doesn't make one, i already went through this with them, it'd have to be a custom application, and a bracket would have to be fabricated.

sorry Eric, but when i get mine done, i'll see what i can do about making brackets for others that want this.

 

not bad ... ive put one on a friends car before by that manufacturer.. just not a cobalt .. go for it

 

Um?

So thats why every car at Redline Time Attack had one this year?

But yeah, your right.........those 600whp STI's, 700whp EVOs and all the other built up cars there were rice. Not.

 

i would buy some if they made ones that are 2 piece or even if they werent i would probably buy them

 

ok, two peice would be good. i have a question, and i think i know the answer, but where would we mount these?

 

how many people have broken axles at teh track? it looks pretty cool and i dont see it hurting anything. i like them
