Hi guys, this is my first post so if I'm in the wrong area please correct me. I have a 2012 fender strat Mexican black and white guitar I love. As much as I love it I want to make it all black (pickguard, knobs, pick up selector and single pickup covers).
I was wondering where to purchase these in the uk, or do I have to get them from the states?
I would like genuine ones not the copy's u get from eBay and such.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks

Robbie :)

Many Ebay vendors sell genuine Fender parts and accessories and will ship across the puddle for a small upcharge.

Thanks for the reply Arjay :)
Yes I know u get genuine equip from eBay but not being very clued up on what's genuine and what's not I just wanted to purchase from a reliable source.
Il probably buy from there if I can't find one :)

Look for the phrase "Genuine Fender Part" and the official Fender P/N in the listing's description. Lacking those two cues, assume that the item is an aftermarket part (which may or may not fit your instrument without "persuasion"). And be certain of the specific guitar model you have before ordering components like a bridge or a pickguard.

This is yer man

or

http://stores.ebay.co.uk/first-avenue-guitars

I ordered a pickguard and CS 54 pickups from him 9.30am on Wednesday, they arrived 12.30pm Thursday. Cheaper to buy from his private site rather than ebay. I'm not affiliated with him in any way, just got very good service from him.
