That fin from LUXORs car looks pretty nice. I purposely avoid playing my radio because that 5 footer is pretty retro looking...

LOL, don't go all anorexic with removing stuff though, that'll just make your car look weird.

I actually have a Japanese soarer which has the antenna mounted on the glass. Clean looking however the reception is no good where I live. Hence the desire for a stubby antenna.

I agree 110%, I'd rather have NO antenna on my SC...I have mine all the way down and disabled and I still get great reception here in the Tristate Area. Even my GPS antenna is hidden.

Well I think on top of its function it gives the exterior a modern update.
this one has GPS, Wifi and HD Radio antenna/Receivers

If the fin had a lower profile and flowed with the roof line a little more then I would approve. It just sticks out a little too much for my tastes.
