Depends on what your new project is going to be like. If it's all out BLING!!! then go polished for sure. Otherwise, the detailed ones would suit anything and still look widked. :P

Go the shiny ones, detailed would look good on an eighties styled machine.

what about a black painted center with a polished rim?

I prefer detailed, looks like an iron cross a bit.
Polished look a little one dimensional to me.

then paint the raised section for a total iron cross and detail the rest of the centre. You could even get some small grooves machined into the raised sections like an iron cross, if you know what I mean.

kinda like this, sorry it's a bit crude...
