Yeah, I was too tired to post multiple quotes in 1 post so I just did that.

I painted mine Chevy Orange.
Makes them easier to find in the mud.

RE: Painting tow hooks
I was thinking of going somewhere near bright red or orange. I'm painting them now though. I finished putting rust-oleum black primer on last night, and now I'm finishing it off with rust-oleum gloss black. It looks good so far. I didn't feel like putting the time or money into getting them powder coated, but so far they seem to be looking great.

Mine were rusty colored when I got my Blazer, so I wet sanded them then painted them gloss black. They look much better now. I'm thinking about painting the skidplate too.

RE: Painting tow hooks
I just painted them gloss black and they look great. I didn't have to sand them because they were in good condition, just a bad color. After installing my push bar you could really notice the color to them. I was thinking of painting the skid plate chrome, but I don't have a lift so you can't even see it in the first place. Haha.

What, no lift yet? lol I'm sure you will someday, so why not paint it chrome now! lol
I was thinking about finding some tow hooks from a junkyard (my blazer doesn't have any) anyway since reading this thread I thought... hmm If i do get tow hooks maybe i should paint mine too. So my question is if you had a dark metallic blue blazer what color would you paint the tow hooks (blue to match, black cause it's stock, or some other color)

I'm not even sure how much a lift would cost on a blazer, or if it would even be worth it since I'm saving up for another truck.
I think on a dark metallic blue Blazer, dark metallic blue would be an awesome color. I just installed my hooks today after painting them and next to the push bar they look really good. I was gonna match my hooks with my green, but I figured it might look kinda weird..
But yeah, towing hooks can come in really handy. And without them, the bumper looked kinda lonely.

Just be careful you bend them.
