How is the reception with those things? Even with the full electric one, there are some areas where I notice spotty reception. I have thought about going with one of the ones in the glass, but I wouldn't want to ruin reception.

Looks good. I like you kept it more on the Z28 side than adding too much SS on there.

Great job! Looks killer!


As for the antenna, I know what you mean. I'm getting rid of mine completely and smoothing it over when I repaint mine. I never listen to the radio anyways. All of my vehicles get a radio that accepts thumb drives!

Gotta keep that Z28 heritage. Any Chevy can be an SS but only a Camaro can be a Z28!
