Differences in 2016 BRZ - Roof spoiler fitting
So I want to order a roof spoiler for my 2016 BRZ,
[ame="http://www.amazon.com/Subaru-Shark-Vortex-Generator-Spoiler/dp/B01B5FQ3H2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1457653188&sr=8-1&keywords=brz+roof+spoiler"]Amazon.com: 13 14 15 Subaru BRZ Shark Fin Vortex Generator Roof Spoiler Wing BR-Z: Automotive[/ame] ^ specifically that one, but I don't know if it will fit my car. I don't know whether the shape or size of the new antennae will effect the fit for this? Does anyone know? I don't even know if the '15's have the upgraded shark fin antennae. Thanks.

I'm pretty sure the base of the shark fin antenna is bigger than the mast antenna and won't fit that hole the roof spoiler gives. You would most likely have to modify it in some way for it to fit.

Maybe I confused myself because I was looking at the photo that's on the product webpage and it didn't have the shark fin. Assumed that it wouldn't fit cause its a different antenna.

Thats the antenna base for the cars with nav and sirius xm. Wont fit the sharkfin. Try your luck removing the sharkfin, installing the vortex generator and putting it back on.

How about this, it's a fake vortex generator. None of those VGs are the correct shape nor orientation to do anything. If yiu want it for a looks mod, spend your money on something that at least looks functional.
