I want to let the Z51 guys know that the 2x6 inch section of grill snap's out to insert our front tow hook, unlike the ZO6 grill does not snap out.

That is correct. I don't think you can use any hook on the z51 without taking this out, or cutting up the grill

Is there a fitting to accept a tow hook behind the Z51 grill?

Thanks for the pic, yes most Z51 have the receivers, some early ones do not. We make receivers for all C7 corvettes. No tow hook will fit on the front of a Z51 unless you remove insert.

Well... Actually mine fits just fine in my 2014 with the grill insert in place.

Not sure how yours fit. Looks like the same hook I have from Phoenix and without seriously scratching up the insert to get the threads to push through it ain't fitting. You must have got an insert with loose tolerances! 😄

Magister Ludi

Interesting. Guess I just lucked out.

Just pull the plastic insert out by hand. Our tow hooks thread in to the receiver. I can see the pic, his insert is not in place. It has been pulled out. The tow hook will not go though the Z51 grill. He may not know he is missing the grill insert!

My front grille tow hook access panel just fell out somewhere. Need to buy replacement.

My access panel snaps in and out. the tow hook fit fine with the panel in place.
