Antenna Trade ?

Ok so I know alot of you guys either have a Perrin antenna or you shaved down your stock antenna to look like one. So i took a look at how to shave the stock one down and still have it look nice, which i did with no problem . . . sadly ive found out that i live too far in the middle of frikin no where not to have that extra 12 inches of antenna in there for reception. Would anyone consider trading a stock antenna for a nicely shaved down one ? Ill even send my antenna first so you dont have to drive around with no antenna. I just dont like not being able to listen to my favorite station (which is from one state over) without hearing little wisps of static now and again. Dont get me wrong the antenna works fine im just too far away to not have the extra length Please PM me or IM me at Walkingchaos if youre interested in a trade.

I'm using an antenna from a S2000...looks great & works great. No signal loss from what I can tell.

I have one I'll trade ya. And to even make it easier, I'll drive the 5 hrs to boston for it. I need a road trip. Most likely this weekend if i get new tires and alignment done. If i dont, then the old shipping routine is fine with me.

went through the stock antenna, a shaved stock antenna, the perrin, and finally an S2000 antenna . . . the S2000 wins in both looks and reception. Theres a small gap at the base but if you take a small rubber o-ring (like youd use in a faucet) and roll it onto the crack it looks PERFECT.
