Default Towing support

Everyone has particular things that annoy them.. and for me it is the towing bracket under the front bumper. For some reason i think it looks bad when viewing the car from the side.. i dont like it hanging there. I'm guessing not all years have this, but i was wondering what others may think/ have done about it. I've considered putting on a front spoiler, but i dont want the side and rear kit so im not sure if that will look funny. thanks.

That is not a towing bracket, it is part of the chin spoiler/air dam system. It keeps them from drooping down at highway speeds. U need it. Are you missing any front body pieces?

It holds up the middle of your spoiler. It's also a tie down point. It's not for towing
