To badge or not to badge? Pics needed

This week i received my NAM membership package which included a beautiful magnetic badge. I already have the badge holder but i cant decide if i want it on or not.

Thing is i have a blacked out dark silver off which i even shaved the rear end from lettering, i'm not sure if this detail will do good or not to the look of the car. Anyhow, i'm after people with pics of their car with the badge ON, preferably dark silver MCS but anything will be appreciated.

Thanks for your inputs

I might order it to try it out, thanks for the idea

That part mounts to the plate holder not the plate.

FWIW, here's a blacked out grille with badges. I like it... the badges stand out more than when the grille was chrome.
