Default The ugliest thing on our mustangs....

The ugliest thing on our mustangs has got to be that stupid looking antenna base, is it just me or does that thing stick out like a sore thumb? Is there anything we can do about it?

Yes, there is. Check out RPI Design, they sell painted covers. Other than that, you can delete it but it'll cost an arm/leg.

I don't know if I'd say it's the ugliest thing on our cars, but as far as "Sticking out like a sore thumb", how 'bout those little circular reflectors on the interior door panel? The most slapped-on, non-integrated, who-put-that-there element on the whole car.

Ugly antenna?
I'd worry about the F150 mirrors first, and same F150 stance out back.

Okay, I may have been exaggerating on the "ugliest" part, but it does look so awkward compared to everything else on the car. Is the RPI designs the only option other than just filling the hole?

Most of the time the ugliest part is the driver

Seriously though, the antenna is horrendous, I plan to have mine deleted when I take the car to fix a scrape on the fender. One of the advantages of living out here is that labor is extremely cheap, so painting the fender and getting the antenna hole filled will cost about 100 dollars.
