Damn, will this bolt right up to the rear of a sedan too? I may need these if I ever start road racing, and will defiantly need them if the car becomes a trailer queen!

Installing mine tomorrow. I've got qwik release pins from Summit.

I also have lanyards on the way to connect the pin to the hook, that way they don't get lost or separated

I've been waiting for a rear tow hook solution for the sedans back when this whole thing started many months back. The only solution I found was to cut a slot in the bumper.

These are HIGHLY recommended if you road race but is it worth cutting your bumper up for?
