    I was going for 6 aswell on my 47 but started at 5. Then I looked at it and stopped there. Im happy with it. I think its propotioned well. But i dont know what you are going for. maybe want it more radical.

    Take 6 outta the shoebox definitely. Go at least 9 in the back.

    Looks good as is. I took 4 outta my 37. I like the looks of 5. 6 might look squinty.
