This tow hook looks legit. Unfortunately you cannot have these in Germany legally otherwise i'd buy one

You are only allowed to have a tow device installed if you are actually getting towed. I don't get it, but it's illegal to just drive around with it.

That's odd.. On the other hand this one is show purpose only. If you tried to use this one for towing itd just bend and break lol

It is odd indeed. You are not really allowed to have anything sticking out beyond the bumpers. So a tow hook like this would stick out beyond the bumpers so it's illegal.

But i don't get what the reason behind this rule is, because it i can legally have a trailer hitch sticking beyond the bumpers, but not a tow hook.
