New Hinged tow hook for front?
The Breathless Performance Corvette C6 Hinged tow hook provides a secure location for a safety crew member to attach a tow rope or for using a winch when loading on a trailer.
We are considering manufacturing the hinged tow hook and selling for $150.00 +/-
Please let me know your thoughts

Pretty neat. I'm assuming it requires the bumper to be removed to install? One suggestion would be to have the shaft of the hinge removable.

Unless you can pull the pin and remove the hinged part I don't see much advantage to it. To me, hanging down like that it seems less aero efficient, larger and more obtrusive than a fixed tow hook. I suppose, there's also some minor potential for movement due to wind buffeting or other forces. Without the ability to remove the hinged part it seems an unnecessary complication to what should be a simple, straightforward device.
Off the subject I want to compliment you on your great selection of aero components! From nose to tail Breathless has it covered.

Thanks for all of your pm's. I would like to point out this tow hook is for Track Events, if a removable pin was used and you need to be pulled in are you going to able to find the pin and the Eyelet?
