honda dealer tech
not sure where to post this but here goes...
while i was at autozone today i seen 3 honda civics all with tow hooks in the front and 2 of them even had em on the back. they looked like they were for looks only or they got a deal on all 5 of em (3 fronts and 2 rears) because they were all new. my question is...what do you think of them? and how much do they usually cost? and if theyre aluminum, how strong are they an the average hook? (i know it depends on the thickness and aluminum grade but is there an average stregth for them?) and are they just for towing back to the pits or down the street? i mean maybe i'll bore a few holes in some aluminum plate, anodize or powder coat em and sell em. just a thought. please tell me what you think about these tow hook things. thanks
