Shorty Antenna

alright. i just got my shorty antenna off ebay and it came today, when i put it on my car i relized the bottom didnt flare out as much as doesnt cover the base? did i just get screwed? by the way i got the 3.5 inch long one. it looks great but theres a big gap.

this is the one i got: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/3-5-s...spagenameZWDVW

this might not matter but they never stated the year the car should be for it to go on.

I think you might have.....That seems to be the problem with geniric ebay auto parts and more particuarly, non model specific generic ebay auto parts

looks real ... being thats an actual stealership ... but i think it might be cheaper to just head to a dealer and buy it from the parts counter
