Question:

Do you have any pictures of this hitch on the 2011 Mistang GT? My son wants a hidden hitch so he can put a bike rack on it, he wont be towing anything. He is very looks oriented and is concerned it wont be hidden. Thanks, his Birthday is May 25th and I need to move quikly if this is asthetically pleasing. Thanks!

At this time we do not have a photo available of the Curt Hitch, # C11210, on a 2011 Mustang GT, but we do have a photo, see attached, of the hitch on a Shelby Convertible that should give you an idea of the look. The receiver portion of the hitch will be visible when installed. The rear fascia will conceal everything except the receiver.

The Curt Hitch, # C11210, will require the use of some type of stabilization strap, like part # 18050, for carrying any non-trailer loads.

If using a trailer hitch on the Mustang for carrying non-trailer loads like a bike rack, I would suggest going with the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch, # 24863, which does not require the use of a stabilization strap for warranty purposes. The installation of this hitch will be similar to the Curt hitch and the look of the hitch will be very much the same.

If you need a hitch mounted bike rack for the Class I hitch you purchase, I would recommend the Thule Helium Aero Aluminum 2 Bike Rack, # TH9042PRO, because it is light weight and folds up nicely for storage in a small area. I added a link to all of our Class I bike racks for you also.
