Tow Hook / Tow Strap

4904 Views 8 Replies 4 Participants Last post by  D1JL
Can anyone give me some guidance on mounting a tow hook or tow strap to my FiST? I do most of my track days with the BMW CCA and they very much encourage having at least one tow hook on the car. On the BMW's it's easy because the threaded inserts are easy to get to on both bumpers.

The FiST not so much...

I've looked at a few intercooler DIY's to see what the structure behind the bumper looks like and it looks like there's a location for a tow strap bolt but it's hidden behind the bumper. I don't mind cutting a tiny slot to put a strap on and I'm fine with pulling the bumper. But before I do I wanted to make sure I was going down the right path.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

The Euro car does, which makes me think that the hookup is behind the bumper. It looked like it in the Mountune intercooler DIY, but that was probably a Euro car.
I just went through a Mountune FMIC installation on our USDM car, and there isn't an OEM mount. There are plenty of places to fashion one, however.
