If they have formal, believable proof of strength, then my hat's off to the savvy businessman that made these happen - and there will indeed be a valid market.

If not, they are as useless as an ejection seat on a helicopter, and almost as dangerous.

I assume the latter until proven otherwise, and wouldn't mount one on my truck (just my personal decision) - what's the point of a decorative tow hook?

I'm not on fb, is there any discussion of strength or, at least, manufacturing process used?

If they're crap, what happens when the poor shmuck three changes of hands down the road actually tries to use one for real? Odds are he won't know to look for a part # or the right type of parting line.
