That's a gorgeous lam top, I think chrome would look classy without competing for attention. Just my two cents, aesthetics are all about personal preference--until you try to sell it one day!
 
Chrome is fine, but I'm in the gold camp. It's a fancy boy, go all in! I'm also opposed to the single coil pickup rings, but admittedly for no good reason since I'm generally not a fan of body mounted pickups. The foam + wood screws tends to fail over time. As for nickel, I feel like a poly gloss finish just won't age with the hardware making it look like old parts on a new guitar.
 
I keep finding that bodies with fancy grain and exotic finishes look different on arrival, so it's hard to judge until its in the flesh. I agree with the folks saying nickel/cosmo black would look good.
 
+1 for nickel. Just google guitar nickel tuners. Allparts has nickel Gotohs. Hipshot does nickel hardware too.
