Are you going to use it for XM, or just for show? Personally, I think the '06's looked a lot better without the shark fin, especially if you have a roof spoiler. Just my opinion.

I got mine at the dealer...it was around 80$.
I also bought one online...but it wasn't the same.....

I took the gutts of the antenna out, then super epoxy'd the rubber base onto the antenna, then super epoxy with the rubber base onto the car. I've had it on for almost a year now, never had a problem...and it looks great!

The ltuned and juntw only has it unpainted.. if you buy one from the dealer is it pre-painted?

Yes, the one from the dealer is pre-painted! Just go to the parts department and tell them your color!

They also sell carbon fiber interior kit.
Anyone know where I can find carbon fiber kit in US? Does Sewell sell it?

How do I remove my sharkfin? It makes my car look like it has a pimple.

Cool so i can get a pre-painted one from the dealer..awesome. I personally think the fin finishes off the car nicely. Now that there are more 07's and 08's out there than 06's seems like the 06's are lacking something visually.
