Default Tow hook

I own a 2010 40th annivesary editon 370z.

While I was making room in the hatch yesterday I pulled up the carpet and the hatch board to find a Nissan stamped toe hook. Is this standard equipment?

The "Toe" hook has got to be a special option for the 40th; I only have the tow hook on mine not the other hook

Sorry I meant to say TOW hook. It looks like there are some cut outs on the spare tire case. What goes in those holes?

Don't you mean the tow hook loop? We don't get the actual hook. We get the little loop/eye thingy that a hook (which would presumably be attached to a winch-cable on a tow truck) goes into.
