I have a VW Beetle & Toyota Echo & cannot find a good place to hook
ropes for a car top canoe carrier on either car. The Echo has good tow
hooks in the back & the Beetle has 1 on 1 side in the back. The
bumpers on both of these cars are fiberglass and I don't trust them to
take the stress.

Any suggestions on how to tie down the front?

Thanks in advance!
