Default Black 5.0 emblems good/bad

Has anyone bought the black 5.0 emblems for the 2011 fenders? If so how did it come out? Especially on a black car. I picked them up but since my car is black I feel like they will just blend in so I am thinking about keeping the stock one on and selling the black emblems. The 5 and the 0 are black and the . is red

What about changing them to a smoked grey?? then they will show up as a suttle 5.0, that might look good. I agree they will not show up, I use to work at a Toyota store and the Camry sport cam with black labels in the back even when the car was black big mistake on Toyota's part.

Deserteagle50 is that silver 5.0 pictured beneath you post your car? Cuz I know black 5.0 emblems will look good on any color car except a black one. Im iffy on black emblems on a black car cuz then what the point you wont be able to see them.

Black on black sure won't look bad, if you're looking to murder it out, I love the look. If you match to wheels, that would be awesome for sure.
