    Someone did this to a Nova I had, it was rubbish, firstly it looked very chavvy and when the car was towed it snapped.

    Eventually the car was towed by attaching a tow rope to the antiroll bar, not an ideal way to tow a Nova but once I got home, I undid the 8 bolts, removed the arb, checked everything suspension wise looked fine and refitted the arb.

    Personally I would never remove the tow eye, but each to their own

    My car will never be towed. I'm doing it more so for appearance, rather than function. Kinda going for a blue/yellow/white/black build. Yellow towstrap would look pretty nice, but I doubt it'll snap, as it is rated for 5T.

    If I had a place to keep you, you'd be more than welcome. And as a car hire, I'd be your chauffeur in my 1.7L TD Nova
