Yeh, i like Danny's the best, but of your two SFBAY, i like the top one. It looks better i think, the second one looks too tall and thin for the CLK which is low and thick.

Why do you need to see what gear you are in? There is only 4 (PRND), so, you can feel it... plus, the gear is shown in the cluster anyways if you want to be certain...
but yes, i think the fatty looks best in the CLK...
