Default New SS tow hook set soon!

We now have made a few 316 stainless steel tow hook that are turned down from the 20mm to 18mm to not touch the front grill so much. The front is a very hard and strong 7 inch 316 SS the rear is a short 4" 303 SS. They will come with our Red D ring that is all forged steel like the premium tow hook. they only come as a set (front and rear) at $189 plus shipping. These will be as strong as the titanium ones that we have decided was not needed.

I love the look of the plain/uncoated hooks, and my wife loves your countertops.

Does the Zo6 already have a place for the rear tow hook?
