Either way, I'm paypaling the rest of the money I owe you tomorrow morning. Post pics of my hook. I'm anxious to see how it turned out...

yeah, he was too busy playing halo 3 to get off his ****.
noah, let me see if i can find something similar in color. Do the calipers have a color name? i assume its the turquoise blue color.

I bet it would look sweet to have it polished first, then the translucent color applied.

^probably would look good. Bad thing about the oem tow hook is the rough texture. Itd take so long to get smooth mirror finish.
The base coat of argent silver will act like polishing it. It wont be as smooth, but itll be shiny!

yep, but your tow hook is larger the vo's.......hes got the little 03 tow hook. the 06 tow hooks have threads that have about 2x the diameter as the 03.










Looks good though
