You know, I don't see why it wouldn't. It seems to stick to everything else.

I haven't tried to raise the antenna yet. I don't think by me raising and lowering the antenna, it would have relocated enough to warrant a respray or touch up.

Thanks for the compliment.

I like it! It would look awesome with the window trim also black if you haven’t did that already.

Think i might do this temporarily before getting a new short antenna

As good as that looks I still like mine shaved with hidden antenna, but good DIY

Thanks guys. I still havent even driven the car for the past 4 days. Been sitting in the garage ever since I did this. I have been driving my 1985 Dodge Ram 50!!!

Only thing left before IA is shine up the engine compartment in a few sections, install the V160, LSD rear end, and get it repainted. J/K. I will be rocking it the way it sits.

The antenna tip looks good! I must admit, I was a little afraid of what I was going to see when I came into this thread? LOL, you pulled it off!

Thanks, Steve.

I actually drove the car today for after a week sitting in the garage. The antenna tip went back to the correct spot as it was when I painted it. Sweet!
