8 inch antennas bend and break easily. I broke one off going to the automatic car wash because I had mud all over my stang. AM shipped me 2 by accident and I bent my current one alittle with my shirt sleeve when I did my PI swap.

8inch looks better but 14 takes more abuse

+1 big time fail, who uses an automatic car wash?

I have an 8" and I don't mind it. If I ever get this car painted, I'm going to delete the ugly thing though.

i don't have either, but IMO i like the 14 inch one. i like how it goes with the roof, the 8 inch one ends at a middle place between the top of the car and the bottom of the windshield. Then again, i have my stock one and i never thought it looked weird or out of place. I'll prob. keep it until i lower it with some H&R's, I'm hitting performance first and then getting to looks after I'm happy with my pull
