e-bay. $55 including shipping from a vendor in Taiwan... was a bit nervous since I normally don't buy stuff from overseas but got it in week. I also put the hook in the rear... not sure if I will do the front yet... and since I took the pic, I changed to style to having it vertical (not flat) ... i like the look better instead of hanging down.

nice shot

What's the point of running a hook if you're not on the track? Are you trying to give folks the impression that you think your BMW is about to break down and you might need a tow?

What's the point of carbon trim? Are you trying to tell people your car is too heavy and are trying to save weight at the track?

Ummmm....it's not carbon fiber so it doesn't save weight, it's textured leather that looks good unlike a hook hanging out of your car.

To each his own, but I don't get it.
