and my vote goes for....

Chopped.

The red hook draws the eye down and is out of place, perhaps if you had it painted your blue, it would blend in.

I give 2 for the sweet cars! They look HOT!

I too vote for no hook! (They can't be used for towing anyways!)

weighing in late after much travel... both rides look great Ken. nice work! I kinda like the tow hook and have been thinking about adding a red one to my car, but i'm worried someone will look at it as an opportunity to ****** with the car. i agree though that with your plate and the fogs it is starting to get busy up there.

so you decide where to place my vote!

motor-on yah, in your case you have the chrome grill trims so
the eyes focus on that more than the plate/tow hook.
