I am going to see if they will get me a Black powder coated one. I know I can clean it, but with 670 miles I should have nothing.

I bought a black colored one, same style as stock, from pepboys auto parts for $8.00 since I hated the chrome one. Looks better than the chrome - imo - and still looks new after 1 year.

I'm down in Miami, Florida, so I figured it was due to the amount of moister in the air. Nonetheless, I hated the look of that “LLOOOONNNGGGG” metal antenna, hitting low hanging trees, under passes, and your occasional pelican or flying pigeon. So I went to PepBoys and for about $15, I bought a Black Rubber antenna which is less then half the length of the OEM. It was a simple screw on installation, and signal strength is on PAR if not better……and it looks great.

How about just using a little polish like Speedy Metal Polish? That should shine it right up unless the rust is really deep and has been there for a long time. Then hit it with a coat of regular wax.
