Default Which Shift ****?

Willfulone inspired me with his shift ****, so now I want to do something custom on mine. Which one does everyone like the best? This is a photochop so everything isnt in the exact location it should be.

Shift **** 1

Shift **** 2

Shift **** 3

I would vote for #3.

If there was a 4th choice - such as #3 graphic without the lettering, I would vote for that one.

Only reason I have the lettering in there is because I call my car Project Nemesis.

Thanks for all the opinions everyone. It will be between 2 and 3. 4 is out caues I do want the lettering in there but it does look cool too. I will keep eveyone updated on the process. It will be a long one too because I will be getting the **** in carbon fiber leather from VE also to match the two boots.
