Anyone with pictures? Is it worth the cosmetics? Are there any other types out there beside the shark fins? I'm leasing my frs what old be the best route to go beside stock antenna?

You could try the Perrin 2" shorty antennas

so many have goofy sharkfin. I just roll with my stock and think it looks just as good.

mrlewistan · 05-14-2013, 04:21 PM

i think the stock is the better looking out of all the ones ive seen. the stubby looks like a severed pinky and the sharkfin looks too chunky especially at the base

Paint it fleshy and put an acrylic nail on it

The Beat-Sonic Shark Fin is just a personal like with most people in my opinion.

I hate the "RC Car" look with a passion.

Here's mine....

D4S · 05-14-2013, 07:09 PM

Mine as well. The fin just makes the car look that much better

I second @TRD-X (our cars are twins, for real)! I don't particularly hate the "RC" look, I would just prefer not to have that look.

I'm kinda partial to my VG SharkFin. I always preferred that over the BeatSonic and the others.

This is the same antenna that I have, but in Asphalt. I like the look of it better and like how its a little different then all the other FR-S's with the common Shark-fin antennas.

I got the VG fin too on my asphalt. I second it. Good paint match up and they are friendly and helpful over email too!

i wonder where this came from - RC car antennas look nothing like what's on the BRZ or FR-S.

however, our antenna DOES like like the one on an FRS hand held radio.
