Default Front Tow hooks for C6
Do they exist? I'm not really hot about attaching one to the radiator sub-frame.

Well they do need to attach to something substantial as the frame. The tow hook, when attached to a tow truck, SHOULD be able to lift the front of the car off the ground

Phoenix Performance offers a fixed and folding tow hook for the C5 and C6 which uses the best/recommended attachment points.
