Tow Hook Options
Has anyone found a quality, folding tow hook alternative to the premium ones like Rennline, Raceseng, and Brey Krause offer? If I have to spend $125-$200 I will, but are there any quality functional options you all have found or all all the cheaper (read $20-$30) eBay/Amazon/JDM options just cheap aluminum junk that will snap if put under stress?

The cheap tow hooks will snap, yes. I have seen dozens snapped.

I use the one that came with the car. Took the one from the Boxster and use it for the rear. Can’t imagine any of the aftermarket ones being stronger.

I have a cup car bumper with a cut out for a retractable tow hook and the factory tow hook as well so I was looking for options as well

The rennline tow hook is great and worth the money. Sometimes they have discounts around the holidays.

I got a towhook out of a BMW SUV.
It’s the same thread/pitch as a Porsche hook but much longer. (BMW cars are different) I’ve painted it red on the end, and was able to add a GoPro Mount. My plan is to use it on the front. For the rear, I‘ve drilled a hole in the black plastic license plate holder. 2 license plate screws removed and the plate comes off and I can install the original Porsche tow hook in back. |

BMW makes the best towhooks.
They have to, they’re going to be used more than any other manufacturer! :D |

My BMW 135i had to be towed home broken way too many times in the 3 years I owned it.
I bought a second towhook so I could keep the original in the tool kit, and have another in the glovebox ready to install. I kept the spare one and it’s in my towhook collection. The 135i was lots of fun, but plagued by electrical issues. |
