as long as you drive only forward it should be OK.
Also if reception is good you will not have to pull it all the way out.
but if you still got your roof bars you could cable tie it to them and you may even reverse thru the bushes.
I have a too cheap whip roof antenna:
It was there with the original roof bars too and is flexible enough to survive the branches.
But DAB has stopped working in it so now it is there for FM.
(On wich there is allmost no transmissions in Norway anymore.)
Fins are no good for reception "they" say, whips are better.

Would most likely be shiny when you recieve it so with your ADOS I have to agree with that 
BTW: the original antenna mount is very usable for getting wires and power to the roof. I searched all over my garage for my old and broken antenna but had to cut my just fine antenna to use the mount to pull wires for my roof mounted LED-bar.
We only have DAB so FM is of no use here.
