Folding Tow Hooks?
wow. thats alot of oxidation & rust...
ever thought of setting the length on the car, then doing a Krylon (rust protection)paint spray over to protect it? guess too late now-

On top of what you can see there, you will also experience crappy threads which don't mate well with the stock tow hook receptacle.

It would just be for looks.

It would just be for looks.if its just for looks. just get a sticker and an arrow that goes TOW -->
the real tow hooks are all mostly universal.. and is custom mounted to the car.. the trend is moving toward tow straps..for their ease of installation

Looks like it's only zinc plated.. Basically in that pic you have high tensile carbon steel covered with zinc.. The zinc acts as a rust protective barrier but is not rust proof and will eventually rust away depending on a number of factors.. For that price, you are definitely being ripped off... The entire product needs to be made out of stainless steel.. A 410 grade Stainless will do.
