I read somewhere here that someone makes soft front and rear tow straps in many colors but for the life of me, the Search function isn't helping. Can someone point me to the right direction please?

So do you leave these off till you need them? I can't see driving around with that on or racing with them on because of the potential damage to other competitors cars. The ones we sell although not available in colors are FIA/SCCA approved and easy for the corner workers to see and get at. They can also be tucked away on themselves when not being used which is nice.

You did a great job though,

I'll be calling you for a pair Mark. Thanks Neil for jogging my memory on the thread.

Thanks! These hooks don't protrude out like the common red O ring bar hooks, my hooks are foldable. Also, the hook can be installed or removed in seconds. The hooks can be left on or off, I had them on my Porsche when I was at Thunderhill.
Since there wasn't any tow hook that looked decent for the Viper. I designed it after the Porsche GT3 Racing hook. The foldable tow hook screws onto a metal shaft which screws into the bumper support bolt, no drilling required (except the rear installation).

When removed, I've also designed a license plate bracket that can be screwed onto the shaft, so no more tickets while driving around town...in California at least.

I haven't submitted them for FIA/SCCA approval yet, but the machined shafts have a tensile strength of over 12K pounds. :2tu:

SFViper,
These hooks are beautiful and I was looking for a red colored hook anyway. How can I get one of these?
