*i was thinking about putting black carbon in the front of the car so it could be like a happy face like the mazda 3. but the carbon is not going too high. just where the license plate begins. i saw someone on here painted the whole thing, yeah..., then again with carbon should look okay. I'm hoping when i wash the car this thing wont come off arrrrg!
*my fog lights will be yellow.

PS: CARBON WHITE: i finished today. the back doors' are not installed yet. but they will be.
I was thinking about putting the whole dashboard white but then again the sun will be all lup-on-my-face. LOL :P

with one shark antenna do you use ? could you please post the link and a more detailed picture of antenna on your car

Everything looks great, but why would you put BMW and Porsche license plate frames on a Hyundai? You can Hyundai ones for like $15-20 each on eBay or Amazon... Just curious.

i use this one

Amazon.com: Kenson Electronics Shark Fin Amplified AM/FM Antenna Universal Style: Car Electronics

but the reception is awful/weak. See i don't know how to take the other screws off so i took off the back (4)gray buttons that holds the ceiling top on. but doing so and not taking off the other screws leaves a crease on the top where u open it. i had to forces it out. it is my car so i thought wut the **** let me just get to it already. so i did it and it left a crease behind.

As far as the license plate, its a long story, but when searching for a license plate cover i wanted something different so the "m" just stood out to me. it gives the car sorta a cool look (idk) i like to say.
the porsche, i mean it is a good car, because after getting the "m" i thought porchse would look nice in the front end. its cool cause in the night cars that come may way see the reflection. thats all

thanks , i´m analizing if this eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices shark antena will be fit on accent

[erik93203]

it should. exept the XM will be disabled. You could search for any shark antenna but it has to be FLAT from the bottom. I had bought a curvy one once that had great reception without knowing it was going to fit. it was my lost.

just go to the dealership and do a little research, you can get one of the other model's antenna's and retain all of the functionality of it if you get the right one, that's what I did. And if you don't want to screw up the headliner when getting to it you have to take apart most of the rear interior so that it will fall/droop on its own. This should give you enough room to get in there and take care of everything

[bart taylor]

did you clean up the cuts around the door handles? looks rough.

[philm00x]

Is that white carbon fiber like 3M DI-NOC? Looks really good! I've been debating swapping the antenna on mine for a shark fin, and I've found an OEM combination antenna through the kia forte forums, but according to some of the ppl that have installed it, it needs wiring modification. The combination antenna keeps satellite radio functionality.

10 bucks not that bad. but i need another one for the back doors so in total i spend is 20 bucks.
And i tried my best to cut around the door handles. The good news is, from far away u can't tell.

For the antennas i did research, and research, but nothing that had XM. so i stuck with this cheap one . In the future i hope i would find something better.
sellers just need to be aware of these situations.
