--mode user installs under $HOME, while --mode system installs under
/usr
You can leave it out and then it will use one or the other depending on
whether you are root or not. Typically only root can use --mode system
anyway.

If it works fine with --mode user, it should work just as fine with sudo
and --mode system. The only thing I can think of is that part of the GTK
icon cache may be outdated and is still pointing to the icon in a
previous location. With older gnome versions it may also help to restart
nautilus.

Cheers,
