Eh, I wouldn't consider anything more than a front strap style, mainly because our cars already have 4 tow hooks from the factory. Only reason I'd consider the front loop strap is because I've had my bumper cracked from a tow truck's winch being too high on the rollback and it would be easy to remove when not in use. (I'm not a fan of tow hooks for looks, lol.)

Eh, to each his own I suppose, lol. I wouldn't want anything permanent on the front of mine.

I've had 2 flat bed tows go fine with the stock front locations and a Wings West bumper, it just takes time and a driver that knows what they're doing.

If you're thinking for something at the track, then yea you might want something easier to use as they'll just yoink you around.

Doesn't the WW have a wider opening at the front? That'd probably be why. I've still got the OEM fascia.
