I would say yes depending on the condition of the car and how it was treated (if it was always park in the sun), I dont think white would show as much of a difference comparing with black color.

I debadged mine right when I got it and the previous owner obviously had some bodywork done because there I was left w/ phantom badges (four perfect little squares where each charactor was) Either someone set the badges on fresh paint and they settled onto the clearcoat or, someone masked of each pice and shot paint. I have since had all emblems removed, 3 holes under my trunkstar filled and the whole trunk repainted.
Good luck, hope your expierience goes without as many roadblocks as mine.

And, I dental-flossed the emblems off my red C300 at about one year and there is no trace of their former location on the paint.
