You definitely could use it to secure your vehicle to a trailer, not a bad idea even. However, it is indeed a tow hook, meant for having your vehicle pulled back onto the track in the event you beach the car in the safety sand outside of track turns. Safety sand is placed on the outside of turns that have long straights leading up to them. They are pits dug out and filled with loose sand to ensure if a vehicle enters too quickly the vehicle will sink into the sand and quickly decelerate. A lot like trying to run in waste deep water. Lower riding performance vehicles commonly get "beached" (where the under panels of the car support more weight than the wheels/suspension) on the sand and require a truck or quad to tow them out. Hence, many track cars feature hooks to be pulled out at a moment's notice.

Now... I guess if you meant for across town towing. Then sure, while it might work, I would exactly recommend it. Buy/rent a trailer for that.

The 05-16 Scion TC has the same 2 tow hook spot inside the Front bumper. I just need to find an M24x2 thread pattern tow hook bolt for an NRG tow hook strap.

Sorry, this hook is not for tying down to a trailer. It is only meant for straight forward recovery for example out of a snowbank,

Did you do anything about the white Styrofoam showing? Anyone have suggestions for blacking it out?

I took mine out but don’t do that. My bumper is now having issues without that piece. Honestly you can take a sharpie or something and just color it. The other option is to drill the piece that came out of the bumper for the most seamless look. You could also 3D print a piece to put there.

The part that gets screwed into the car. Is it all universal for every car or are there specific ones we have to get for each car?

Do they make covers with the hole already drilled. I like the tow hooks as cosmetics?

Has anyone been defected for having these on the car , the cops would use the argument that the hook sticks out too much , it can be dangerous because you or a pedestrian could hurt themselves.
