Tow hooks

[stangcobra]

Recently Ive been seeing a lot of cars with the pwjdm or benen tow hooks on them
I'm planning to slam my speed3 and thought that tow hooks would add to the jdm style that I'm going for. Anyone know of a decent kit thatll fit these cars?

Something like this?

If so you can get them on eBay.

Yep, exactly like that, I assume thats your car, did you have to cut the bumper?

That is actually SPEEDYHANS car from the True Red thread: http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/show...e-red-speed3&p=4862504&viewfull=1#post4862504

The cutout is already there in the bumper:

(that's my car btw)

It's kind of hard to see in that particular picture, but there is a red circle just to the left of the black part of the bumper (by the reflection of the house). You can pop that off and behind it is a place to thread the factory tow hook which is located in the trunk underneath the carpet by the spare tire.

So I can just buy an aftermarket hook and screw it in there? awesome

Absolutely. It just has to be the correct thread pitch.

This one is for the NC Miata: http://www.jdmgoodie.com/product_p/nc0-0175r.htm
I'm not sure if the MS3 version would need to be different but I would bet that the thread pitch is the same.
