Now that I look at the base of our antenna I'm not so sure it would fit so well
on our cars. The base is pretty high, and if you push the fin further forward there will be
little to no room for the antenna coil.

My boyfriend placed his on my car to see how it would look. It's a tight fit over the base but it will work.

The funny thing is on the site the advertise the '5 door hatch' but i think it was a typo. I'm debating on emailing them to have them correct it, but i have already verified the factory paint color.

Hahahaha i'm for sure getting the shark fin, but it will be ordered next week. The purpose of asking if anyone was interested was to place a large group order to make it a little cheaper for everyone. Maybe after my bills are paid, i will order it this week to have it by next week's tint modification

In order to go ahead with a group buy, i think 10+ people would have to be in for the shark fin, and one person has already ordered one.

2-3 weeks is a long time for how much they charge for the thing.

they say 2-3 weeks so customers aren't calling them every day. At my job our catalog orders take only 5 business days, but they tell our customers 10-14 business days in case of holidays, or in case they have massive orders.

also since the job is done to match our factory paint color, i'm sure they dont have mass quantities on hand to ship on the next business day.
