I smashed my wheelwell extension so I pounded it out with hammers for a few hours and then repainted it with factory paint I sprayed on with hardware store do-it-yourself spay bottles with air pressure extensions. Then, to top the amatuer job off I put a black wheelwell molding strip (about 1/4 inch wide) around the very outside edge of the extension. The job looks 1/2 ok. I added a 2nd antenna on the right side in the same location as the antenna on the left side except this second antenna is for the CB/Ham radio. Before putting this 2nd antenna in, I had it modified so that it would be optimized for CB/Ham frequencies at a spy shop. It doesn't advertise the presence of a CB at all because it is a factory antenna.
