Default What's your take on this? [putting hybrid blue emblem on trunk]

Hello all. I have been considering getting the Lexus hybrid blue emblem to put on the back (trunk lid). This is the emblem I am talking about:

My question is, would it look weird/whacked out? I personally like the blue, and like how it will stand out on my car's grey paint job. Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I think it would look cool on your color. Go for it!

I currently rock the hybrid emblem on my ride. I prefer it over the oem emblem. Beware, price for the hybrid emblem range from $150.00-$200.00
