Air Filters. Foam or fibers?

I was looking around for a new air filter for my bike. I was looking around to find two intersting types of filters. i found this foam filter sold at spookytooth:Uni Sock Filter
And this one sold at sick bile parts:Sick Bike Parts

Do you guys know whats better?

Pick the one that you think will look the best on your bike. I have a SBP one because It was the cheapest one i could find and it looks good to.

I would go with the SBP filter. The Uni filter doesn't look like it will attach to a stock carb very well.

Just for the record, that filter isn't made from "paper". It's synthetic fiber.

SBP looks better. I use a chunk of poly foam on my bike with no trouble.
