Painted tow hooks?

[thedadlegend]

I'd be interested to see your painted tow hooks. I have a darker truck and was thinking a dark blue or even the blue on the lightning logo might look sweet.

Maybe I'll photoshop it. Anyone know the color code by chance?

Are you talking about the receiver or the hook itself ?
Styling the hook seems like overkill since (at least I wouldn't) you won't keep it attached and once hooked up no one will see it anyway, so besides the campground flex of "even my tow hook is lightning blue" I'm not sure of it's purpose.

Then again, to each their own, you could give it flames, bucket size exhaust tips and slam it to the ground so you can't even clear a minor bump, so as long as you like the look of it - go for it.

I’m talking about these red thingies. Just looking for photos of Lightnings with them painted.

LOL
How's that for reading comprehension.... (or mostly lack there of)

Sorry about that!
Not a lightning but close enough, i believe this is from Stage3 (forums sponsor).

I would be interested in hear more about as well!

Stage 3 also makes the red ford aftermarket tow hooks for the raptor. They should also fit the lightning.

Covers, nice. I found a video where removal required a hole saw to easily access the bolts and I’m inclined to just do that + some paint for cheaper. Tho I like the idea of it not being permanent, in case I hate it lol

Need those covers in the Lightning Blue

Sounds like a good candidate for plastidip.

You can mix them to get different shades, but here's a small selection of off-the-shelf blue.

Just painted some white silicone tow hook covers with Rustoleum Oasis Blue. Dont think itll last long because its on silicone, but whatever

Looks nice - are they on there pretty snug? I'm afraid they may fall off there isn't any adhesive. Curious.
