After browsing pics I have decided the 12-12.5 will be fine. Is that still requiring +6 or will +4 work?

Forgot about control wiring ext. Do I have to get a new wire set or is there extensions available?

Lastly, whats the consensus on who has the best looking and quality? Pics help justification.
