Description
aFe CONTROL Tow Hook – 2005–2013 Chevrolet Corvette (C6) add an application-specific recovery/tow-point component with a motorsport-oriented appearance. This listing is built around aFe POWER part numbers 450-401006-R, 450-401006-L, 450-401005-R, 450-401005-L for the 2005–2013 Chevrolet Corvette (C6).
Recovery hardware sees high loads, so correct mounting and installation matter more than appearance. aFe CONTROL tow hooks are designed around the intended chassis mounting interface rather than improvised universal attachment.
What This Means on the Car
For a track car, an accessible tow point can simplify recovery after an off or mechanical issue. For a street/show build it also adds a functional motorsport detail.
Configuration Guide
Position: Rear, Front. Select the required vehicle position rather than assuming the front and rear components are interchangeable.
Color: Red, Blue. This selection changes the specified finish/appearance; choose the option that matches the rest of the build.
Fitment & Part Numbers
Application: 2005–2013 Chevrolet Corvette (C6)
aFe POWER part numbers: 450-401006-R, 450-401006-L, 450-401005-R, 450-401005-L
Fitment can differ by engine, drivetrain, trim, factory equipment, emissions configuration and production date. Match the part number above to the vehicle before installation; where aFe publishes SKU-specific installation or emissions requirements, those requirements take precedence.
Legacy Racing Enthusiast Perspective
Install exactly as aFe specifies and inspect the mounting interface before use. We favor functional tow hardware over decorative straps that are not tied into a proper recovery point. On the 2005–2013 Chevrolet Corvette (C6), we would make the purchase decision around the limitation this component addresses and how it fits with the car's current and planned modifications.
