ECS Tuning Race Tow Strap - Red - Mk8 Golf

ECS Tuning Race Tow Strap - Red - Mk8 Golf

This polyester front tow strap is far and above the best tow strap available for the Volkswagen MK8 GTI/ Golf R chassis. ECS Tuning uses a heavy-duty, chemical-resistant polyester strap webbed around a stainless steel stud. There is plenty of length available for tow hooks to grab onto without hitting your bumper and damaging paint or causing cracks. This tow strap installs into the factory tow hook location in the bumper support .  

A tow strap is a better pickup point than a fixed steel ring, which will add weight and protrude past the bumper. Some racing series have banned the steel rings because they increase the likelihood of contact during close racing. Our straps are sold in bright red, black or VW's famous MK7 plaid (red suggested for racing use as it makes it easy for tow truck operators and safety crews to spot). 

Key Features: 

• 303 stainless steel construction

• Machined flats to tighten the hook down with a wrench

• Lab tested to a break strength of 4,000 lbs. 

• Box stitched strap for strength

• Threads into factory tow hook locations

• Designed to be SCCA and NASA compliant for racing

• Black, Flame Red or MK7 Plaid strap color options

*Proper recovery and safety techniques should always be followed.  Never exceed the manufacturers recommended factory tow hook weight limit - not rated for aggressive recovery techniques or situations.
