Well forget trying to pick up radio stations with this lol. I use XM radio so I only wanted this to clean up the looks.

 

Close up.

 

Lol can't even see it in this shot or from the passenger side.

 

looks great

is that factory paint on your car? got some orange peel goin on there...

 

Thanks..whats orange peel? yes its factory paint. I took the photos in macro mode so maybe that caused the paint to look weird. Dunno it looks normal to me so I can't tell lol.

I just waxed it yesterday..I think this photo is in normal mode, i switched back after the closeups I think.

 

Thats very nice! If only it actually worked, i would buy it in a second.

 

I'm sure he was just kidding. Orange Peel is the rippling look from pic. Usually caused from sh*ty body work. Z Ya ! FLZ

 

Our cars have plenty of orange peel from the factory. That close up just makes it really obvious.

Nice antenna!

 

can u show me where u get it???

and how much

look very nice on ur car

 

ive seen them on ebay. But be warned reception is VERY bad.

 

Looks good. The factory antenna is just ridiculously long and it moves too much at higher speeds. By the way, it's called orange peel because it resembles the skin of an orange. Personally, I think it makes the car's paint flow better instead of a flat, plain surface that you see on wet sanded cars.

 

Where do you buy these antena and how is the cost.

Papo from Puerto Rico

 

Yes they sell them on ebay, I bought it from this guys website. Took 5 days to get here..think it cost me 21 dollars that was including shipping.

Antenna

 

I installed the little shorty and guess what? No reception, Duh. Neat little trick worked though. I put a lead spacer then screwed it on. Don't know why, but reception is absolutely perfect.

 

Where did you get it ?

 

Do you have a picture of the lead spacer that you were talking about? I've got the same antenna, but I took it off because the poor receptions, But if I could get it working again, I might put it back on.

 

i have the same antena and the reception is crap... more info on the lead spacer!

 

NICE ANT

 

I have the same one that you guys are talking about . . .I dont think the reception is that bad . . .but like others I really only listen to XM now. I have it on the shortest link too. I think it came with 3 different length centers. Have you tried the different lengths?

I do like yours, Rushguy. Very nice looking.

 

my shorty antenna reception very clear
