Default BitViper's Shorty Antenna

I just received my antenna from forum member BitViper. I just wanted to say he is a great seller. I sent him the money through paypal and had the antenna just a couple of days later. The reception is just as good as the stock piece. I think it looks pretty sharp too. Here are some pics.

I also really like the look. I think you should advertise more Bitviper. I did a search in the sale section and couldnt find anywhere where you offered these for sale.

Thanks for the compliment....

I cant.... Im not a site sponsor, read $$$... I don't even send msg's to members soliciting my stuff..

Its cost more to be a sponsor on some sites that I make in a month of sales

All my "contacts" are by word of mouth.. buyer to new buyer.. it keeps me small....

This thing started out as just a project for my Camaro and has ended up being a part time thing... its fun I get to talk to a butt load of folks and see allot of really cool cars..

But I try really hard NOT to **** off the Moderators of of the couple of sites Im on or to break any rules
