Default Black pearl emblems? Yes or no

What do you guys think of replacing the stock silver 350Z, Nissan emblems with black pearl colored ones on a magnetic black Z?
Am thinking about this, but not sure what it would look like.
Anyone got pics of this?
Thanks for any help!

Funny, I was just looking at this site tonight for the same emblems.

http://www.courtesyparts.com/350z/emblems.html

I have a MB Z & wanted to do the same...

I painted my Billet Grill Gloss Black & it looks great, so I wanted to take all the emblems down to a pearl black. I think it will look great. The cost for all the emblems will be about $300 bucks. I'm trying to figure a way to take off the OEM's and have them refinished.

Don't do it! I ordered one for the front and it looked great. Later I ordered one for the rear and it looked nothing like it. Dull and silvery vs. glossy and dark and courtesy parts had no sympathy...no exchange or return so I just painted them black and am much happier

I was thinking of doing the same thing, but I just can't see paying that much for badges. I've heard of using spray tint to get the same effect, has anyone tried this?
