help on Installing aftermarket front and rear tow hooks

hello, I have a set of Carrosse/Cusco tow hook made for the FC3S

i have used the search engine but got no help.



i test fitted the long piece and it looks like it bolts right up to the front bumper support.

but i have no idea how to hook the shorter piece to the rear.

can anyone please chime in on how to do the rear part? or do i have both pieces mixed up where the long piece is for the rear and the short is for the front?

thanks in advance

I think the rear one requires you to cut a hole/ slot in the rear bumper and attach it to the bumper support... I am not positive though sorry.

Did you mount your tow hooks yet? you have the same rear bumper as me and I am curious to the location you picked. It is hard to watch them pull it up with the control arms.
