ive been buying the harware in bits. Ive got a black neck plate and gold neck screws already. Should look nice this way. just dont know what size screws i should order for the parts that already come with screws...I doubt that Warmoth would give me gold screws along with my black hardware. Bridge will be gold with black graphtech saddles.

You can order and use pickguard screws for everything but the PUs; Warmoth has gold pickup mounting screws for use with mounting rings as well

control cavity cover

For control cavities I use 6-32 threaded inserts from Lowes or microfasteners (http://tinyurl.com/5qxkyg) and machine screws from microfasteners, also, but they don't have gold.  The threaded inserts from Lowes seem cheap and break easily.  Don't know about the microfasteners.

I see that this place has some 6-32 machine screws in gold: http://www.guitarnucleus.com/gnstore/screws.html#miscscrews Look for GN0064SC-GLD.
