Attaching tow hook

johnnyf · 07-12-2018, 10:07 AM

My 2016 Nismo 370Z has a plastic grill bar that covers the plate that receives the screw in tow hook. It has a removable section (3 -4 inches) for access. Do I just break this out or is there some way to release it so it could be put back at a later date? I don't want to get ham fisted and break something that could be easy if you know what to do.

Should be able to just pull it out without breaking anything.

Johnny, take a look in your manual and it will show you how to remove the piece with out braking anything.

Hey Sizziano, thanks for the info. It came right out once I knew that I didn't have to break anything, just pull hard in the right direction. Forum works again. Couldn't find it in the 370Z manual. Should I have a Nismo manual.
