Not bad, but the OEM peice is only ~$5 and saves yourself the work. But it does the job!

Don't say that. I just ordered one last week (have yet to receive it). Oh well, if I don't like it, I have all of the stuff to do this to my actual antennae plate at my parents' house.

Why, you already did. Besides, you just want to show off how much better yours is than mine

That's ok. I'll have my dad do it. He painted cars for about 25 years and he completely repainted my car for me last year for free

I know he used DuPont. I was supposed to pay him for the materials (base and clear), but when we were done, nothing was said about it. I helped a lot with the body work though too. And it was also my b-day when we finished up, so that may have had something to do with it.

Almost a week since I ordered mine, and it is still not here. I hope I don't get stiffed.
