BRZ antenna options
 
Hey guys.
I was just wondering if there are any shark fin / bulb covering options for the BRZ besides that halfassed beatsonic brz one.

i know theres perrin stubby and a whole bunch of frs only ones.

just wondering if you guys found any others

There's a VG one that I've been trying to get my hands on... so far no luck because my group buy vendor is being sketchy and not responding to messages after a month from purchase.

For the time being I simply removed the stock antenna stick and just let it sit there without it on, radio signals & XM seem fine. I'm interested too to see what other antenna options there are; I obviously removed mine cause it looks cheaper than anything that you would find at thrift shops. :barf:

I think I am going with a Perrin stubby. Not feeling the shark fin on these cars.

beat sonic looks/works great...why the hate?

Would changing of antenna to aftermarket make any difference in connectivity?

I think the Beat Sonic looks awesome on these cars. If anything, the regular black job looks out of place.

I agree with the OP. I see you're from Canada. You guys get the better looking Beatsonic antenna that isn't compatible with the US models. The US one they offer looks weak and isn't even an exact color match.

I too am wanting an aggresive looking, color matched, full functioning US one.

Umm..I'm in the U.S. and I got one for my Satin White...works perfect and is an EXACT color match. Where are you getting your info?

Beatsonic's page for the BRZ specifies that the only color they matched is World Rally Blue. All the other colors are listed under "Similar Alternate Color".

Unfortunately Beatsonic must have sold out of their Grey color because it is pictured but not listed as an option for ordering. :(

Can't speak for the others, but the Satin White matches perfectly.
