Thank vijen....the tow hitch is a variation on one that I bought years ago from Evolution Motorsports. It went under the licence plate , but on the outside of the bumper cover, requiring some cutting of the bumperettes. This new design goes under the bumper cover and is affixed directly to the aluminum bumper at the tow hook. It requires a 4" by 3/8" slit be cut in the bumper cover directly under the licence plate. Also, on newer cars (05 & up), I suggest replacing the bumper mounts with the bumper struts from an older car. With the ball removed the hitch is barely noticeable. Here are some more pics:


Here it is without the ball on my 02:


Here are the stock 05 up bumper mounts:


Here are the bumper struts from an earlier car:
