I vote color match. It'll look goofy painted black without a black roof in my opinion.

yeah, thats what im thinking. i live in a place near mountains so signals are already weak, once i installed my CF shorty antenna i pretty much lost most signal. ugh... it looks really nice though.

according to people here, the beat sonic is comparable to the stock antenna reception wise..

Maybe you should do like Saved did to his BBP and get a '08 VW Rabbit antennae.

He posted that he got better radio signals with it installed plus it makes the Fit looks like a RC car. Function + Form!

I know! I wanna get one for mine but I haven't found one for sale on a VW forum and I'm too lazy to remove it if the antennae catches my garage door. ha

Haha, that is awesome! The laughter of a child can make anyone's day brighter.

I was thinking about changing it this weekend for a new avatar or the old "Push Button, Receive Bacon" one but since Hailie enjoys it, I'll keep it up for another week or so.

Is it weird if I'm a little aroused from this picture?

MAN!!!!! I wish I could fully track out my fit or any car for that matter! I'm hoping to run laguna seca this year just for fun with my current setup. should be fun but not as much fun as yours buddy
