No worries. Next time have her take the pictures. :tup:

Anyone know where I can find a gold colored tow hook?

Get a red one and paint it to gold.:p

If you don't mind can you provide the overall length and travel length you ended up with for the Nismo bumper? I am thinking of doing the same.

Also do you by any chance know the pitch for the tread (i.e. M10)

Thanks!

I'm at work right now. So it won't be until late tonight for the specs. Or if you already have a hook. Just get a machine shop to make you a copy of the shaft, but 2 1/4" longer. That's what I did. ;)

Thank you so much for the help. I actually don't have a tow hook yet so I was gonna machine one from scratch. I could buy one and modify like you but I have a machine shop that owes me a favor and wouldn't mind having them do the whole thing for me. If its not too much trouble to provide me the lengths I can prolly get the thread size from my stock tow hook. Did you make it out of Stainless steel?

Like you. The machine shop I used owned me a favor. Stainless was going to cost me though. So I ended up getting it made from carbon steel. They polished it up. And I clear coated it. LOL You need to get the inside diameter of the hook you are going to use. If I give you that, and you get a hook with a different inside diameter. Think you might get pissed. When I get home. I'll give you the length. ;)

Not everyone is complaining! LOL

LMAO Thank you! ;)

I got mine awhile ago and had Mike powdercoat it for me. Looks great! It's a perfect color match with my wheels too. Once it warms up here and stops raining when I'm off I'll be washing the Z and I'll be posting pics :) A little dirty right now to get pics taken lol.

Here are a few of my newest shots of the Z. Again I want to give Mike from the Forum big props for powder coating my tow hook. He did a great job, it was quick turnaround time and was competitive pricing. Also as you can see it's the exact same color as my wheels. Thanks again Mike!

HMMMMM looks good, but it won't fit a Nismo. ;)

i searched for a good while trying to find a non-diy solution for those of us without access to machine shops (nismo specific)
