alright


so im looking into getting rid of the stupid power antenna, and replacing it with a shark fin.


now im confused about how i will get radio reception???


cause when you shave the antenna you completly remove it correct? and fill in the hole?

and then how do i get reception with the fin???


if anyone could just gimme some basic understanding i would greatly appreciate it!!

thanks

The shark fin doesn't flow good on any of the cars on that sites photo gallery. Well only one car looked good with it and that was the is350. IIRC it looks good our celica. I think it was supradog who had one on hers.
