Default Weiss Gold Accent Color Match

Violet is a dark color with Weiss Gold (white gold) accent colors. For those of you with the same accent color, do you find the vinyl graphics to have an acceptable color match to the paint?

I never really noticed this when the car was new. However, during the clear bra application, I had the installer apply a replica of the flag graphic. Huge mistake. The color was VERY gold and not even close to the factory color. So, I had that removed and replaced with the OE vinyl graphics. However, I'm still annoyed by the poor color match. All the painted parts (wheels, mirrors, wing endplates, air intake bezel) all look much more silver in hue compared to the vinyl. I'm almost tempted to replace them again in favor of silver.

Anyone else see the same on their OE graphics?

Purple reign is much prettier without decals.
