It's not an antenna. It's a parking pole. It's used to show you where the corner opposite of the driver is for use in parking. They were optional in Asia, where parallel parking is MUCH tighter.

You can occasionally find them on "JDM" parts retailers, or in the Marketplace, right here on Honda-Tech.

The fact that you don't even know what one is and you still want one ... means you're a ricer.

People like you are why real enthusiasts get **** for wanting functional parts. For every person who is going to use a bumper pole or a rear foglight, there are 100 more that just want it because 'it look ****** tight.'

Haha, don't you hate that "word" if you can call it that.

It's ok though, he's from Chino! Haha, jk man (sorta).

I actually know someone that used the JDM Parking Pole idea and made it a functional radio antenna. Which turned it into something practical for two reasons; parking assistance, and radio reception. I guess it was also, "hella tight".

The parking pole is ACTUALLY functional if you install it on the passenger side of the bumper and well...use it. you put it on the furthest front corner away from the driver to help you, well. Park. Wanting it because it "looks cool" is simply asinine.

Funny how all the things you mentioned are less rice than what you're doing to your car.

RHD is a waste of money in my opinion - but it's not rice. Same goes for black housings, wire tucks, different valve covers, RIMS (which everybody has), so on and so forth.

RIMS ARE NOT RICE!!

Outside of Kia and Daewoo and some of the smaller less known Mongolian, Singapore, etc. countries I don't know any other company that doesn't make tight rims for their cars.

You can't call rims rice, rice is something a domestic person can call out - I know a lot of domestic loving people - hating as they may be - none of them would call rice on rims man @ U.

That's awesome, I wanna make one of those and when I see a JDM parking poll guy just park next to him and tape that thing in a place where I'm sure he'd see it.

I agree..

100%...

Side note - as you seem kind of new here:
If there's something me and Eran see eye to eye on, that you disagree with - you're most likely in the wrong by a long shot...most likely, anyways.

Judging by the other responses I would have to say the unlikely condition doesn't apply here.
