Cant do pics at home but if these I'd agree. JDM tow plates.

Ricers, well, they are wanna bes Is this what you're talking about OP? http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e60/05cgm/000_0594.jpg Yeah, that's a REAL tow hook. My buddy (whom actually does track racing in his STI) has even used his in our cold shitty Canadian winters to pull... 'unprepared' people out of snow banks. I'm sure they're hundreds of dollars though, and it's cheaper and easier to put a piece of sheet metal on and a 'biner and call her good. |

For the same reason you see guys on rice rockets flying down the freeway with their feet on the passenger pegs. They're fucking morons.

Cars ot 4x4s? Lil shitty coupes http://www.jl-motoring.com/v/vspfiles/photos/MBTH0001-4.jpg That's a factory tow point, GTG. This is what I see here http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=jdm+aluminum+tow+plates&id=8A2C3665241A42DF0E2E77D37E5506E817F3ABD2&FORM=IQFRBA |

Probably so the other ricers know they are down for a fart can revving battle or something.

Yo.
It looks dope, homie Pro sports car racing sanctioning bodies require them for competition, in the event a car needs to be towed off the race course. "Track day" (street cars) are not required to have the tow hoop, so what they're doing is for show. Nothing more |

Ricers are no different than all the air soft wannabes.
R.I.C.E. = Race Inspired Cosmetic Enhancements They want to look like the thing they saw on TV, but they are too dumb and lazy to figure out why people have those things. So instead of spending money and time on doing it right, they order some Chinese look alike products and tell themselves that they are just as cool and unique as the tv characters they are trying to emulate. In my experience, these types have very poor self esteem and are trying to find a way to shortcut their real life into matching the false ego they've built up in their heads. |

Mini Coopers come standard with screw in tow hooks.
So it's not exclusive to ricers. |

That's a factory tow point, GTG. This is what I see here http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=jdm+aluminum+tow+plates&id=8A2C3665241A42DF0E2E77D37E5506E817F3ABD2&FORM=IQFRBA View Quote Wannabe racer stickers add 5hp, the tow plate easily doubles that. |

If what you're talking about is hanging off the back of the car you may be seeing the new fad known as a "drift charm".
Indicates you're either -jdm 4lyfe -show you're willing to race -to show how low or slammed a car is -gay |

All the ones around here have caribiners or this plates on the BACK of the car.....kind of like truck nuts for ricers

Why do people daily drive bro dozers to the office?
Why do motorcycles have loud exhaust, chrome rims and ground effects lights? Why do tuner cars daily drive with tow hooks? Because it's their property and they get amusment out of people's reaction to their property... |
