I'm pretty sure that GM makes one for the export C6's. I wonder if they could be adapted to the C5. Check out item #13.

Looks like this could work.

If you get the hinged tow hooks you can put a pin where the hinge is which will allow you to take the hook part off when not in use.

The attached flyer is for a removable hook that installs in about an hour without removing the front bumper.
