Several years ago I had a mini (2003) with recovery rings and I got hit by a guy. The first words out of his mouth when he looked at the damage was "you know my car would not have so much damage if you did not have those things on the back of your car". I thought I wish I had more.

I am not knowledgeable about impact against frames, I just know that if my frame gets damaged, there is a good chance my car will be totaled. If I did screw spikes into the tow hook spots would the frame be fine if the hit was from a parking type collision? I would be willing to install both spikes and dash cams if I was confident the spikes would not cause damage to the frame from minor collisions.
