No effect that I have noticed. I am not sure how much the actual element is shortened, but I would say it should skew its effectiveness towards the higher end of the band (shorter wavelength), but not enough you should notice. I notice no difference in it other than looks.

I can't speak for others, but for me when I get relativily cheap mods I feel like I got more with the little money I have. (ie. door sills, license plate, sport pedals, calipers, all of them together costing $170ish). The small things have to happen sometime anyway, might as well get them done when they are convient (when you have low funds).
