does anyone know a front tow hook for EK that is foldable like this picture on the right? (different brand other than J's racing)

the application on this picture is only for Jazz's, none for EK's

I don't mind J's racing, as long as they have like the one on the right for EK,

but seems like, they don't.

if brand name isn't a concern, just get someone to make you one, and pay half the price.

You'd have to drill and tap a thread into the support to be able to use it.

You can't just sit it in the bumper cover.

^^ i agree. are you really going to tow your car with it? if not just hang it out of your bumper, if you are, look where there is some room and drill/tap a mounting point. i have seen the exact hook and a pre face lift ek hatch, it was mounted toward the lefthand side of the front air dam :thumbsup:
