Talking Opinions please

So I dunno if any of you remember, but a few months ago I posted about re-covering my stock shift ****, as the original leather was all-but-gone. Well, my shift **** recovering skills are clearly lacking, because its falling apart again lol. So I found a **** I really like, just can't decide on the color, thats where you come in. Just looking for some feedback...

Sorry for the oddly-shaped picture, its the only one I could find. I'm partial to the flat black and the stainless, and I know it ultimately comes down to personal choice, but you're the only people I can think who give a crap about shift ***** lol. Whatcha think?

Black or the third one down, the stainless look. Either would be cool.

Yeah I've kinda had my eye on the third one. I originally wanted to keep a leather shift **** but apparently my clammy-*** hands don't get along well with cow hide.

definately satin finish, the polished ones would have finger prints all over them all the time. if black goes with your interior then either the 4th or 5th one are nice, otherwise the 3rd.

what color is your car/interior. I'm gonna say one of the black ones though, but if you ahve a silver car or silver interior accents than get the brushed one.
