Towing Spots

Many newer cars come with a threaded tow loop/hook that screws into the front bumper, after removing a cover. Some enterprising companies have come out with front license plate brackets that attach via the tow hook receptacle, eliminating the need to drill the front bumper in states that require a front plate.

 

They're under those little caps. There's a large bolt with an eye, with the tool kit, screws in, one side or the other. And yeah, they're not that friendly, likely to get chewed a bit when you pry them off. That said, they'd only be practical for something like dragging the car back up a bank, say if it slid off a road. If you're taking the car down the road, the front wheels pretty much have to be off the road, since the transaxle locks the front wheels when the car's off.
