    i wonder, what would happen if u put CF on top of it... would it hurt the signal? cuz CF sharkfin antenna would look nice imo if u have CF hood and/or trunk :)

    They suggest you align it and use masking tape to mark the corners so that when you peel the tape backing off you can get it spot on. That's what I did and it came out fine. I'd suggest that you just barely stick it on at first then eyeball it a couple of times from several angles before going back and pushing down firmly. You could also have a friend help.

    /\ you want to loook at it from the front of the car,cuz youll see that the back of the fin is straight but if you dont look at it from the front of the car and its off slightly,youll notice it big time.

    dang , you know what would look sick with that??? put on vortex generator either buy a universal kit that's on ebay..........or i think speedcorps is making one specifically for our cars, how sure how it would install with the difference in size of the sharkie fin compared to R/C antenna
