Does anyone know where I can purchase a shorter antenna online?

There are plenty of places online that sell them. I have a black powder coated one on my '03.
If you want to save the money, a lot of people just pull the tip off the top, cut it to the length they want, and put the tip back on.

That wouldn't decrease the signal tuning?

Yes. It does, but unless you're stations are already weak, it won't affect most of them, most of the time.
The only time I start to lose a signal is in covered drive-thru's (bank especially) or when the car is inside.

All the car really needs is a good set of rims. The design speeks for it's

First thing will most likely be small things like customer cig lighter, a/c *****, etc. After that, I hope to get the windows tined then the stripes

I put 255/50/R17s on my car already.

Replacing the wheel center caps with ponys is a possible 2nd.

I was thinking of racing stripes. How would Dark Shadow Grey stripes look on my mineral grey GT? Other options would be white or Black.

Pardon the use of NFSU2 screen shot, but THIS is how my '06 will look with ghost flames! Yeppir, Titanium w/ those sweeeet 18" wheels? GeezOhMan. 47 years old and playing video games AND futzing around with the built-in paint shop. Is there no hope? (I guess not!)

Whatever your age might be, there's nothing that says you can't have some fun and enjoy life, right? (55)
