I think the shark fins are rather neat. Seeing as 90% of all new audis are fitted with almost an identical one to that!

Should be a direct fit. I got one a few weeks ago as I thought mine was faulty but turns out the amplifier on it isnt working properly!

I think they look cool
I got a stubby aerial last year but I think I might have to upgrade
