Default Simple free mod.

I was bored yesterday, and hated looking at the antenna on these things. It's so huge. So, I fixed that problem.

Think you should put a rubber cap of some sort on it, it looks sharp. There are a few places on ebay that sells short rubber anntenas, I looking fro on for my truck, and they are only 13 bucks...

I would tend to grab it on a walk by. It looks like a dangerous thing to do to me.

Sure thing man.

I go for simple free mods first, then the actual ones that matter later on. I ALMOST tinted my rearview mirrors today... woulda been a bad idea, they looked sooo good though.

Looks good - I'll go with the black powder-coated.


How much trouble to swap 'em out?
