What's that for?

FRPP loop mounted to the bumper on a bracket manufactured by a Team Shelby member. Requires no cutting of the bumper cover, and fits right past the Silver Horse Racing lower grill insert. License plate comes off with two slotted screws.

It's a little too edgy to leave it hanging out there in public all the time, so rather than remove the one Nylocked nut from the pivot, I just covered the whole thing with a velvet bag that a Terlingua Racing Team key fob came in. My version of the bull ball bag.

For towing the car off the track in the event of a breakdown?

When I saw the first pic I was like, ummmmmm, this car has Carrol Shelby's sack hanging in the grille. Then I saw the second picture and was like aahhhhhhh yes a tow hook.

Ricers love to flaunt them like fake parachute laden bumpers!

I can think of something else to attach to the grill that's made out of latex to flaunt to the ricers. Could put a CS logo on that too.
