got mine installed today. It took awhile to get it perfectly straight, but other than that it was easy. Reception is the same as before, which is to say darn good.

Only the same as before? The reception in my car is crap, so it will not get worse at least.
Now I need the pictures.

yeah i live in California, and it is known as the special state. I get OT.. Although i slept in until 11pm today.. i work tomorrow so hopefully after work or for sure Sunday. i have Sunday off!

i actually may have a job working a mon-friday cush job making more per hour then my current job. although since i wont be making any OT, it is still making 300 less a month. but all holidays holidays off just like the state, benefits and i am not in charge, i think it will be better stress wise on my part.

It looks pretty nice I'll buy one next week. Was it easy to install?

What color are you getting your emblem painted?

Yeah it was easy.. I just took the little rod off, and screwed the new receptor portion of the antenna on, without the removing the base. Use the painters tape to line up the antenna before you go putting it on. There were seriously three steps to installing it onto the car, not including the cleaning.

As for the emblems. I am removing the HYUNDAI off of the car. Painting the 'H' flat black along with the ACCENT, then centering them together in the rear of the car. So instead of the ACCENT being on the right side of the car it will be in the center above the trunk handle.

I'm pretty sure the shark fin fits only on the hatchbacks, and is only offered for the 3 door on the website. The 4 door accents has their antenna too close to the rear window and i'm sure to have them fit it on there would be hard.

My shark fin looks identical to my boyfriends only the curvature on the bottom is different to fit the shape of the car
