I'm thinking about getting the tow hook installed, was wondering what is the difference between the two?

The premium is currently out of stock and don't mind waiting. Just would like whatever works

Premium Hook
https://zl1addons.com/products/mustang-16-20-gt350-and-gt350r-premium-tow-hook?variant=27750877057

Titanium Hook
https://zl1addons.com/products/mustang-gt350-titanium-tow-hook-package?variant=30399362369

I want the Premium a bit more because I think it would look really nice if I can paint it in guardsman blue, but I don't know if it is functional

Both will be functional. Only difference is the weight savings with the Titanium is my thought on it

Stupid question but do you think its enough to alter the driving characteristics, like being more front heavy lol

Its not about a single instance of a weight savings measure, but more cumulative. The old saying "it all adds up".

If you are going to do any serious track time, you save weight where you can.

If you are not going to track it, I wouldnt spend the extra money.

Even if you track it, unless you're gutting the car it's a fart in the wind.

Tracking it in full street trim like most do at a typical HPDE? I just take a crap at the start of the day to offset the extra few ounces.

^^^^ Exactly, its a cumulative proposition. The tow hook itself won't make any difference, but instead it should be part of a weight savings overall goal in terms of the bottom line.
