Default Which shift ****?

I'm thinking about getting a new shift **** for my black WS6. My choices are:

MBA Black/Firechicken on top
MBA Black/WS6 on tops
Hurst classic black with 6 speed pattern on top

Which do you think would look best? Thanks for the help!

Sorry, I know that it's not one of your choices, but the best looking **** in my opinion is the MOMO F16 series ****. Here's the black leather one, which is the same one that I have:

$90 is a little steep for a ****, but damn, it just looks badass IMO. If I HAD to pick from your list, I'd say the MBA Black/WS6 on tops would be my pick.

Sorry Snootch didn't mean to burst your bubble. Its still a cool **** it just looks like a coat hanger. If it makes you feel any better I have a buddy that works for MOMO that might be able to get you a discount on other stuff. I can't promise anything but I can try.

I've got the MBA with the WS.6 on it, I got that one because at the time other than the badge nothing else on the car said WS.6. I'm not one for overkill on the badges however, but I thought this wouldn't be overkill with it in two places. The only thing I don't like about it is in the summer sittin in the sun it says hot as hell forever it seems like until it finally cools down. In the winter it says cold but that's not as bad...
