Default Shark fin Antena

Hey guys, Driving the 2012 malibu around I have come to appreciate the shark fin style antena on the roof. While browsing ebay today I came across this

Here is the link.
Red ABS Shark Fin Buick Style Antenna Mast Roof Decoration Universal Fit for BMW | eBay

It would be hard to tell until it was actually on the car. There may be someone on here that could photo shop it for you, at least it would give you a better idea of exactly how it would look

Not a fan of the functional factory shark fins, not a fine of any shark fins....

Just my take.

Eventually, my Monte will have a Transformer theme. They had Shark Fin Antennas on there heads. Which was there roofs when they were in car mode. And there are different style of this antenna mock up. I think it would be a good Subtle mod for any car. I want it on mine!

So it seems like a love it, hate it kinda thing. I think I might get one and attatch it with 3m tape. If I decide I don't like It I can always take it off.
