Best-looking pickguard with Graphite Pearl?

What do you think would be the best-looking pickguard for the graphite pearl finish on a Bongo? Pics appreciated and you can even photoshop from Pickguard Heaven if you think one of those would look great.

Thanks!

Yep. Moonstone.

Either that, or Clown Barf.
