Hi I am looking for ideas & photos of towing points.

My rear subframe has been modified/strengthened by having the back piece (c section) replaced with a piece of box section. So there is no problem with strenght. Can you just bolt one of those towing straps through the boot floor(I would think it was not strong enough) It has had the rear valance removed.

My front is fiberglass so how do I get around that ?

What have you ?

buy a front towing eye, it bolts through the subframe where the teardrop mounts would be

The only thing with that, is they go through the front valance, which is part of the fiberglass front end. So I wouldn't be able to use them unless I put slits in it.
