How would this look?
I shaved the radio antenna from my front fender, and am contemplating putting a power antenna in the rear passenger side, next to the hatch (got the idea from my buddy's Mark III Supra)
Has anyone ever done it? Impressions? Maybe a photochop?

I put mine behind the rear seats, works fine. I think it looks ugly outside the car

I don't care for the antenna on the front fender at all, and am partial to them on the rear (I like them in the windshield for that "cool" factor too, but not likely here..)

I don't like antennas period. I don't like seeing them, as they are distracting if you notice them.
My fender is not shaved but the anntenna is gone, no radio suits me fine as I never listen to it anyways. Nothing but country stations down here in Southern Il.

that sucks about the country stations, ya shave the antenna and for the sake of saving $$$ just shove the whole unit inside the dash and it will still work perfectly.

Ha, haven't listened to the radio down here in almost 4 years, I'll have to make note of those stations the next time I listen to the radio.
