I was hesitant when I heard the V2 was larger than the original version but now that it's on I think it suits it quite well.

Just installed mine. Ordered and had it in my hands in just a few days. Radio reception is fine. My sirius satellite antenna is magnetic mounted to the roof directly behind the stock radio antenna and its reception has not been affected by the fin.
I will say that the stock antenna mount and the satellite antenna just barely fit under the sharkfin, probably less than an eighth inch wiggle room, had to push the sat antenna flush up against the stock antenna mount....but it fit. If I had a complaint, I'd say that the rubber skirt around the bottom could be just a touch shorter or the doublestick tape could be just a bit thicker...my opinion is that you have to push it down too hard for the doublestick tapeto contact the roof. I think there's just a little too much pressure from the skirt trying to push the fin back up. Good thing about this though is that water and dirt should not be forced underneath it. Looks nice, was afraid it might be too big but once you put it on I think the proportions are good. Paint color matches pretty good, not perfect (just a touch darker than the car) but not really noticeable with all the reflections going on. A keeper! |

Finally got some time to install this bad boy
BeatSonic V2 SharkFin (Got them delivered from FT86SpeedFactory a while ago) 10mins prep... 1 Hour to decide if its straight or not (lol, Just kidding) Thought it would be abit bulky, but it actually looks very sleek and sharp, Very happy with the product and color match to the D4S (Raven) paint. |

I just received mine. I ordered it last week - so, I was under the assumption that it would be the V2. Unfortunately its not, and does not fit my brz...make sure it's the V2 before you place your orders gentlemen.

You guys need to make a color matched antenna delete cover. I am eventually removing mine and rather not weld up the hole and have the roof re painted. A thin as possible cap or cover would be awesome. If you guys made one color matched for my upcoming 2016 it would be my first mod for sure!
