I want to say no, and I really hate to admit it, but it does look quite appealing to me...

i was just telling my gf that i was going to paint my emblems gold. i think gold looks good only on black and white cars so they will look good on your whiteout.

The gold trim always reminds me of those old brass fittings for sinks etc. It looks old...out-dated...to me at least

Gold wheels = Win. Gold emblems = Fail. If you want to match go with white emblems.

I would say go with a gold Scion Emblem if you had to do that.
