Post by TERENCE »

anyone know if there is such a thing as a coloured antennae base for the aerial ???
if not do you reckon they're hard to paint up??

I wouldn't paint it, because rubber tends to crack it would end up looking sh!t

Maybe you could try wrap some vinyl around it somehow, to cover the whole surface, might not go on too smooth though ?
