Stubby Carbon Fiber Antennas anyone?
I just installed a Carbon Fiber manually retractable antenna. THoughts comments? I like it much better than the stocker and reception is just fine.


Nate That looks AWESOME Dude!
Where can we get one? How much was involved in swapping it out? Most of them I have seen just screw on but if this is retractable does it mount differently?
I would really appreciate it if you post more information. Thank you again.
Stay safe...

I have a short rubber stubby and may be able to get some others for a group buy. If we have enough interest I may be able to get them for about 14 or 15 shipped.
Ill check on a price and see what I can do if there is interest.
Thanks
Nate
I want one - I love our cars but I think the antenna is stupid looking for the car. Looks like an afterthought. Someone at the Dragon had a great small antenna - I think it was Marcos from Atlanta - my yellow XF buddy!

not that i see looks like they include different size nuts for the antenna so it will fit many newer sized cars. ima check at pepboys, advance and autozone and see if they carry them.
Yes this is the same type that I have.
Hopefully I can get these and save us $5 bucks or so.
I will let you know hopefully later today. Otherwise you can all purchase them on ebay as well.
THanks!

Especially since there are limited accessories whatever I can find will go a long way in helping us all customize!
