So I've been able to change every icon in my sidebar except for Downloads

The icon for Downloads that appears in the sidebar is the icon of the Downloads folder, not a separate icon

To better explain, by default the sidebar icon for Downloads is a red arrow. At the same time, the icon for the downloads folder is blue.

In my case, the sidebar icon is the exact same as the folder icon.

I've tried changing it using Candybar and the traditional CMD+V method. Candybar doesn't work. CMD+V changes the sidebar icon, but at the same time also changes the folder icon, which I don't want

I think it should be mentioned that I actually removed the Downloads folder out of the sidebar sometime in the past, and re-added it manually. In addition, I added a "School" folder and would like to be able to change its sidebar icon as well.

Hope you guys understand the problem. :)
