Trimming the antenna

[Spd2Stang]

Not the best picture and the contrast is not as noticable in person, but I would still like to find a flat/satin cap.

its looks ok, that rear quarter panel below the antenna needs some TLC though.

Cant be clean 24/7, its a daily driver.

I think he's referring to the swirls

I told everyone at Ford who would listen to me that the new Mustang needs to ditch the antenna.

+ a bazilion

Has anyone done a delete?
I exclusively use XM and pandora. no need for it.

Camera + flash = intensified appearance. I does not look the way to the eye.

The Craven Stubby antenna. Clipping the antenna is a step above carving a spoiler out of wood and painting it black to save money. I'm just sayin'.

I went to Pep boys 10 bucks same size as shorty antenna, looks good jay as long as you don't cut through the metal you should be ok, thought about gettin a spare. And see how far the metal extends inside to make as short as possible

I saw this one yesterday and was wondering about the fitment! LOVE IT!

I'm ordering! Thanks:rockon:

who listens to regular radio anyhow? Then again if you are cutting down your stock antenna you probably the type who won't spring for the monthly fee yet has $200k sitting in the bank rotting away.

I capped it with a boost line plug. It looks almost factory to me if I never saw the stocker. There people who innovate and others who throw money to the wind, that's all. Hey Travis I totally agree with going antenna-less or somehow wiring the standard radio antenna to the Sirius one which I'm going to disconnect as soon as it gets warm outside cuz I Songza and pandora over sync from my phone. The only time I listen to radio is when I listen to AM talk sports radio on the way to work

I agree totally. More important things shouldn't be
"rigged", but we're talking about the damn antenna here...Who cares. Looks great and 100% stock with the cap on it. Good job.

MUCH better. I'd do this! What is a boost line plug? Talk to me Goose? Link? Something?:banana::shrug:

EDIT: Found THESE!

VJ, how tall is your "cut" antenna now and can you take a complete side shot of your car so I can see how it looks from the side???

qft. i have been saying this for years. every car maker with any common sense stopped using external antenna's back in the 90's. im still waiting for someone to sell a true antenna delete kit for 11-14 GT. i havent listened to fm radio in 10 years.

It's a standard boost line plug, get it local at your nearest hardware/auto store, noting crazy

Just did mine. 5 seconds with wire cutters and $2 later and its done!! I looked at all the offerings and I like the way the OEM antenna is perfectly color matched with the base and the perfect diameter. Plus, why spend $30 for a $2 replication???

Ill post a pic of it on my car. I'm running errands. Lol

 

[yeller1]

I like the homemade versions. How much is being cut off the stock antenna?

 

[01bluesnake]

lol, nice quick mod. Thinking about doing this now.
