Yes you can, if you want flat matte finish go plastic dip! (Like what I did to my car before.) But if you want glossy black finish you may have to order the kit from dealer.

Black Pearl Emblem will make the GS look like sport car, and silver Emblem will make it look more luxury

That actually looks really good, only thing that throws it off is you ordered the wrong size emblem for the front, hence the gap to the edges. But the total effect from the second picture you can't really tell and it looks good from a far!

Mesca,
If you look at stock GS450h logo, the "L" is not all the way to the edge.
and I got inspired from this...

Here's I found on line for your reference. BTW, We should meet again (I bought your extra logo, remember), I would like to see your front grill chrome pieces in person....
