Are you game PL? Got the 3D model ready here for you if you decide to invest on your hood a little
I could do white gold or platinum. But we would have to figure out a way to electrify it in case of theft. Or perhaps rig it to an exploding dye pack.
This would easily exceed the cost of my first car.

The last few on eBay haven't sold so you could probably get one for $99. if you have a ciore to exchange I think you get $25 back. My boxster is Ocean Blue and my steering wheel airbag emblem is silver, so I am thinking about getting one. I really like the brushed nickel one (not shown in this auction) but it is more expensive...

Yeah that would look nice on a dark colored car for sure. On a lighter color car I think I'd want some of the red bars in there at least.
