Ok we just got them painted. Now just waiting for the 3M tape to arrive. The previous tape was too small and thin so once the correct size 3M tape arrives we will ship them out. Should be in a few days. Here you can see the white color VG. You decide if its the wicked or weightless white

The antenna holes are hand carved so yours might be a bit ruff on the edges like the picture below. All you need to do is take a little piece of sand paper and lightly sand the edges a bit to make them more rounded...only takes about 10 seconds. This way the clip will sit more perfectly.
Before
sand it lightly with sand paper wrapped around your finger
after
clip installed

How to install VG
MAKE SURE TO WASH AND CLEAN YOUR ROOF!
remove rain gutters on both sides. remove a portion of the 3M tape film just like the first pic below...do not remove the entire film! Screw on the antenna loosely and stand behind the car and make sure the VG is perfectly centered with the antenna. Once that is done go to the side of the car and continue pulling the film off slowly. As you slowly pull on the film, lightly push down on the corner of the VG only...dont push down on the VG where the film is right underneath...it might clamp it too much and break the film off. Again check to see if everything is lined up from the back when looking at the antenna. When one side of the VG is stucked on you can just remove the complete film and slowly press firmly on the VG on all areas to make sure it sticks on good. Double check to make sure the corners are perfect and sticked PROPERLY! Remember dont push down hard until you know the VG is where you want it because once it sticks its gonna stick
Got a question feel free to ask
BTW here is a sample of how you mount the 3M tape....

I don't want to buy it, get it and realize it's the wrong color.
I'm not sure why this is still up in the air. Either it's painted Weightless White, painted Wicked white, or some other generic white.
