Question What's this for on the Rear Diffuser?

What's the purpose of this on the Rear Diffuser?









Does anyone know what it's for?

Okay, so no one knows what it's for. I thought maybe it was a cover for a rear tow hook receptacle, but I can't find anything referencing a rear tow hook location even though that makes the most sense.

Does your GS 450h have this on the right side of the rear diffuser?

You already answered your question, why bother posting? Every 4th gen GS has it in the same location.

As I said; I couldn't find anything referencing a rear tow hook. That's why I posted. No one could answer my question even though it had over a 100 views!

Question for you peasodos - Are you intentionally trying to pick a fight? It sure seems like it! Why the friction from you? I don't think I've done anything to ruffle your feathers. If I have, I'm not aware of it. Please try your best to get over it.

The tow hook cover is in the same exact location as your last 4th gen GS.

I'm exiting this thread for good because it should be deleted, not entertaining your reply's.

Thanks for updating the thread, bclexus. I had my vehicle for a couple of years and never noticed it, but it's there.
