I have factory tow hooks on my s2000 but they stay in the trunk unless I am at the track or need a tow. I don't understand the big brightly covered ones. I know that people that have a hatchback or sedan i.e. civic that was originally build as an economical daily driven car and was then modified and lowered is now in need of a hook as it can no longer be pulled from the mounts that Honda had intended. Why they make hooks that are a foot long have big holes and are painted neon green is beyond me. Some people just need the attention.
