New tow hook options?

[David in VA]

I've seen several discussions on tow hook and jack pad options for those of us with stock bumpers, none of which seems ideal. Does anyone have any experience with the new ones advertised here?

They both say no body modifications needed, sounds interesting.

I have the renline fronts but I have yet to get them on my car. They look like the bolt on with no modification though

That Jack pad and tow hook (combo) did not fit my 3.2L. The oil sump return hardline is in the way.

I bought mine from our host for $89 or so. Looks exactly like the one from your link. I may modify it so that it will work (wled on some 1/4" sheet steel to extent the forward and aft mounts), but it'll just be about an inch lower so that it will clear the oil line.

The tow hooks that Rennline sells for the front torsion bar cover plates are a bolt-on. They even come with new hardware (bolts) for each mount. I'll be ordering those in the near future.

Thanks for the feedback Matt. I thought it might be a different product than the Weltmeister but I guess it's the same one for the rear. The front doesn't appear on the rennline website, is that the one you're talking about? Seems like a bargain for $21.
