Im trying to decide if I should go with a "hidden" style tow hook mount instead of the one already fabricated. The hidden would either pivot like the one shown below or retract strait back. I think its a good look and would clean up the "fangs" on the bash bar quite a bit, the down side is id have to cut a hole in the bumper.

Attached a current mock up of the tow hook as its fabricated now as well.

That Porsche has such a clean cut it doesn't matter. Go for it.

I think the current one looks fine and it saves you from having to cut a hole in your bumper.

I would leave it as is.

Picked the motor up and a buddy started the wire harness extension and tuck today. Also snapped a pic of the Tiburnt hardware against the Powdercoated timing cover.

My buddy and I put in about 7 hours on the tuck today. Unfortunately we only had one soder gun and hear gun so progress was limited. There is still a ton left to do but we'll get there.

I decided I'm going to adjust the tow hook placement. It'll now retract strait back. It exit the just above the opening in the bumper along the leading edge, very similar to the location of the BMW 2000 concept. Here a pic of the tucked brakes lines as well.

Just got these from the shop. The bash bar and Intercooler are in the way for the hook to exit on the leading edge. It'll be more towards the opening.
