$17 drag reduction mod

Yea, I know, I'm exaggerating the stream line effects. After only 3 years, LOL. I finally got rid of that 36" whip antenna and got this 3.5" alum billet / black anodized stub version. Cool looking, excellent quality, sleeker and since I live near the city, no degradation of radio signal. Billet Depot on eBay, if interested.
