Title: Pics of replacement aerials
Post by: evo_ray on July 11, 2007, 10:44:09 PM
Don\'t like the standard aerial at all and at some stage I want to remove it [probably when i get the body kit done].  

I don\'t have a rear wiper so was thinking about fitting a replacement aerial where the rear washer spray nozzle thingy [you know what i mean] goes.  Can anyone post pics of your cars with replacement aerials so i can see what they look like.

I love the look of the shark fin aerial on the BM\'s but not sure what they would look like on a FD? Anyone fitted one? Pics please :D

I\'m thinking about getting the S2000 aerial for mine...was looking at my mates a while back and it looks like it could just swap over...should be a tidy look, just need to find one now!

I put this one on mine - only problem is I cant remember where I got it from which doesnt help you much  :rolleyes:    I bought the main part of the aerial from somewhere like speeding.co.uk, then the shorter shaft from somewhere like TMC

Those look a lot better than the 6 foot monster of an aerial i\'ve got.
