Default What to embroider my headrests with. I need opinions - I'm stuck!

I am in the process of moving to a mostly black interior. I have a set of "ebony" seats. Whatever I go with, it will be as closely matched to the black of the headrests. I want it to be extremely subtle, the kind of thing that if a friend/relative rode in the car, they might not even notice it until the 3rd or 4th time they were in the car.

So the question is:
Do I go with the bird or to I go with "Trans Am" using the original text?


I have taken the Firebird logo off of the back and replaced it with "Trans Am" and the only Firebird logo I will have will be on the front where the license plate would be. I am trying to move away from the logo and shift more to the Trans Am name. However, I think the bird on the headrests might look good enough that I am having a hell of a time deciding (good thing I'm pretty much broke right now until probably August - plenty of time to decide, plenty of time for people to tell me the black on black is a crappy idea!).

I prefer the bird more but either way will look great. Trans am with the bird like 97ram's would be nice as well.
