Mudguards & Shark fin installation pictures!
Hi everyone,

Yesterday my VisualGarage Mark II Sharkfin arrived, so this morning I got out my masking tape and installed it. Smile I also never posted pictures of my mudguards actually on the car, so I thought I'd bundle them into this thread...

Sharkfin in box:

Mudguards:

(apologies for the dirt, I took these pictures after driving home from a road in the middle of being resurfaced...yeah...)

Antenna before:

Antenna after:

Took about a month to get here but so far I am very pleased. No loss of radio reception at this time. Smile

Very easy - all you have to do is clean the area, unscrew your existing antenna, screw the cord of the shark fin into the base, line it up where you want it, remove the adhesive cover & stick it down.
