I shaved the antenna on my 86 Cavalier. Removed the front fender, arched the antenna over the wheel well. Patched the antenna hole, painted the fender, reinstalled. Somehow it didn't effect the reception of the local stations. But the Factory GM radio/antenna setup never picked up anything beyond the local broadcasts. Might be larger effect on a more modern radio that has better reception.
