well, when i think of a "mod" i think of it as one of 2 things a)being something that increases the speed/performance of your car or b) being something like a body kit or something u MODified on your car for appearences or whatnot, but...this thread was only meant as a joke so i by no means call the antenna ball a "mod"

so yeah, a dent is a modification. It changes the appearance. So I guess I could say car is frequently modded, since people keep dinging it!

Oh yeah, Raiders deserted us and went to Nor Cal but if they're still your fav, that's cool

Well, I found out that the jack ball modification can fit over Lancers that swapped their antennas. Here is the how-to:

Tools needed:
- Jack ball for install
- Pencil or pen (Sharpee would be best)
- Knife of any kind
- 30 minutes for fitting

Procedure:
1) Remove the antenna from the car.
2) try to fit the jack ball over the antenna with the hole aligned to the center of the antenna.
3) with the sharpee, trace around the jack ball where the antenna meets the bottom of the ball.
4) re-install the antenna on the car.
5) use the knife to cut the small hole to the newly traced hole size.
6) try to fit the ball on the antenna, if it doesnt fit good use the knife to make the hole bigger until the jack ball fits nice and snug.
7) face the jack ball forward for best performance increase.
8) take the car to a dyno and post here what type of jack ball you have and the increase in HP.
