Default Tow Point Strap

Does anyone have a link to a place I can buy a nylon web loop for the front bumper tow point like some of the pro race teams use? The reason being is that I was at a track day and a guy from a Nissan dealership saw my OEM eye bolt that comes in the trunk. He suggested I use the nylon strap type instead because if you bump anything with the eye bolt it will set off the air bag.

Yes that is a nice one and I found a similar one http://www.ioportracing.com/Merchant...Category_Code=
But that will not work on the location of the OEM tow point because the metal would bend and then break because of the way the load would be applied.And you can't just bolt this to the bumper because it would need to be a nut and bolt combination and how would you get a nut on the inside of the square tube bumper?

something like this would work better http://www.turnermotorsport.com/p-27...90-e92-m3.aspx
