When changing the pickguard to a mint green color, should I be changing the pickup covers, knobs, etc. to mint green as well? I know there isn't a rule or anything.

The Squier Classic Vibe 60s comes in Candy Apple Red with a mint green guard, but the other parts seem to be an off-white color.

I want to change the guard on my MIM CAR to mint green, but I'm not sure if I should just change the guard or everything.

I used to have an Arctic White strat with a mint pickguard and the regular white accessories looked good with it. I think the mint green is a very subtle color and the white accessories really helps the pickguard pop a little better. Just my opinion.
