C5 Corvette aFe CONTROL PFADT Series Front Tow Hook - Red (1997-2004)
450-401002-R
aFe 450-401002-R A36 Steel Front Tow Hook for C5 Corvette
The aFe CONTROL PFADT Series Front Tow Hook 450-401002-R adds a dedicated front tow point and a bold red motorsport accent to the 1997-2004 C5 Corvette. Designed for both street and race use, this front-position tow hook is laser cut from 3/16-inch A36 steel and finished in durable red powder coat. It gives C5 owners a practical attachment location for a tow hook or strap while helping keep towing equipment away from vulnerable Corvette body panels.
This is a vehicle-specific C5 Corvette front tow hook rather than a generic universal loop. aFe supplies the installation tool, Riv-Nuts, and required hardware, giving the owner the components needed for a purpose-built installation. The aggressive PFADT Series appearance suits track-day and performance-focused Corvettes, but the real advantage is straightforward front-position identification and a dedicated attachment point when the car needs to be moved or recovered.
