You think its ugly? Is it too thick at the base for your tastes? I'm not sure if I like it or not, but given as wide as it is at the base, I'm not sure it could be replaced with anything else without looking out of place.

I guess it's because I'm used to shark fins that are on the rear of the roof. My Infiniti has one as does my wifes car.

I wish they made this look more streamlined. I don't like how it has a "base" and then turns into the thinner part.
