Hahaha liking the stickers, I don't think smurfette will look that clean for long!! lol

I'm not getting the pink one...?? Whats it say??

And yeah same question as above, stumpy looks good but how's the reception?!? Was looking at the rubber on my antenna today when I was washing her and it's all cracked and crappy so stubby antenna is on the list! just not keen for crappy reception though, but they do look heaps better!

stubby antenna
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/ANTENNA-A...item27afaaf899

if you want to spend more, think about 90-100 depending on the aussie dollar you can go a shark fin one.
