I've done some stuff like that myself. It's just a brain fart, you're still ok!

A little fraud never hurt anyone.

It's prob an easy fix...but they new spolier might not have a built-in ant.

At least it looks good!

That's the excuse I always hear, it's always the friend, brother, or wife that screwed it up.

you can fix it yourself in way less time than it would take to go to the dealer and give them the story.
fixing/covering-up your f-ups is all part of DIY

I think I might have you beat on that. I was changing the oil on my G8 witch I've done many times before but this time I was in a hurry because my girlfriend and the kids were going to visit grandmom so i would have the whole day to sit around an do nothing. So as I went to drain the fluid I notice it was purple and I thought since when did I use royal purple oil. Well folks you probably no we're I'm going with this. Yes I drained the tranny fluid instead. Being that I didn't have a Trans oil pump in hand I had it towed to the stealer ship because no one would touch it after I told them it was a closed transmission so they had no clue. Talk about feeling like a dumb ass. Now I can laugh but it wasn't so funny at the time.

The regular antenna for the radio is in the Spoiler on the convertible, the XM and onstar antennas are in the shark fin.
On the coupe the regular radio antenna is in the rear window.

To the OP.
Glad you got it fixed.
But I don't think I would have told anyone... If nobody saw you do it then it never happened.
