Tow hook

So i'm missing a tow hook cover on my Acura TL 05. So I'm either replacing it with another cover, or just an aftermarket on one...which one would you guys recommend? If you guys can, find link to both items for me cause i cannot find any. Thank you!

For the life of me, I can't figure out why some consider that a modification and seem to think it's a good look. The first time I saw a TL with one, I thought it was something that somebody had just stuck on the car because there was something wrong with it.

From the way I read the OP's post, I don't believe he/she was going to put the tow hook into his bumper. Even though it says "Tow Hook" as the title above the text, it does mention "cover" twice in the post and believe they are in fact looking for the cover.

OP - the cover is part number 5 in the hyperlink posted by i_TL

I think those ones that stick out of the tow hook hole are just as ugly as the tow hook.... upsets the balanced look of the car.
