where did you get your tow hook from? I'm looking for a black one.
Also, are you fitting the front one so it's functional? and not just for looks? as I want to fit mine but couldn't see anywhere strong enough. So would appreciate a nice write up how to :D

The tow hook is from epr racing on eBay. I've bought the extendable strap so it can be used properly. There was a 106 in work yesterday with a strap cabled tied to the towing mount fully visible (kebab). The standard towing point is behind the bumper so I'm hoping to mount to that and get it through to the front on a route that won't foul under tension

mine is functional mate, just needed to add on a metal tow bar to extend the length a bit, see (ish) here :)
