DanielJames Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 Hi all, I remember reading somewhere that you can't get a tow bar on an E46 'sport' is this true??? My car is a 2003 sport saloon. If its possible how much am I looking at? Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 Definitely false as I have a tow bar fitted to mine. Not sure on prices though I'm afraid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickyZ Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 Nope cover for the towbar attachment lol if i remember I ll take it off then get some more pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 Nope cover for the towbar attachment lol Oh right, surprised how intrusive* it looks being OEM. Aftermarket towbar where you don't have to butcher the diffuser FTW! *Only intrusive as we know what they look like normally. I imagine to 99% of people it looks fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickyZ Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 (edited) lol yep 90% of people wont even notice it lol Slides off and the tow bar slides up into the bumper from what I can see, never used it haha Cover off (not mine but you get the idea lol): Edited January 23, 2012 by Trickster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
